I am trying to query for the 3 most recent posts in the home page of my website powered by Wordpress:
wp_reset_postdata();
wp_reset_query();
query_posts('showposts=3');
rewind_posts();
while (have_posts()) : the_post();
// do stuff.
the_title();
endwhile;
However, 7 posts are being displayed. Furthermore, not all of these 7 posts are the latest posts. Above this query, there are other queries.
As you see, I have tried reseting the post data and the query data to no avail. What other factors could affect the posts retrieved?
