Hello. Tell me, is it possible in wordpress to display 3 latest news with a very brief description and thumbnail in a div? At the same time, the output information should be styled?

Answer 1

<div class="last-posts">
<h2>Последние сообщения</h2>
<ul>
<?php $posts = get_posts('numberposts=3'); 
foreach($posts as $post) { ?>
<li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
<?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
