Display specific post only [closed]

Question

I have a category heading on the left with all posts in that category listed below. When the user clicks on a specific post, I want that post (and that post only) to display.

I used I used query_posts($query_string.'&posts_per_page=1'); but when you click on a specific post in that category, only the most recent post shows up.

How can I just display the selected post, and that post only?

Thanks!!

Answer 1

create a separate category/tag for that particular post you need, add or remove the tag/category if you need to add another post.

query_posts( 'tag=selected' ); or query_posts( 'cat=selected' );

or query_posts( 'cat=featured&tag=selected' );
