Alright, I was about to begin work on a project and was on the look out for a theme with particular features.

What I want is, on the home page, the categories need to be assorted into H2 headings and below them just the title of the last 5-6 posts of that category needs to be displayed.

I whipped up something in photoshop to give you guys a clearer picture of what I am looking at.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
 


Your best option is probably to use one of the designers here on WF to create a WP theme for you based on your specifications. Since you clearly already know exactly what you want, that should be a pretty straight forward gig. There are some very reasonably priced designers in the BST section.
 
Elegant Themes are worth checking out, this one for example isn't exactly what you are after but you can customize them to quite a large degree.

I have website designers and developers working inhouse for me & I am a designer too. So that shouldn't be much of a problem.

The thing is this is one of my personal projects, and I am just trying to save myself and others some time.

Is this PSD file designed by you? for me it looks like a perfectly working wordpress theme :) BTW is it for a listing site like job listing, classified listing etc?

Yes, I designed that PSD file. I'll go ahead and code it, if I don't find the perfect theme for myself.

And no, it's not for any Job Listing or Classified listing site.

I did check out aggregate, but it's too taxing on the browser and is a very cluttered & code intensive. I like themes that are simple, yet elegant.
 
Revolution (Genesis) theme has this Option for the home page.
You can tweak to add those home page function to your sidebar

<?php $recent = new WP_Query("cat=3&showposts=3"); while($recent->have_posts()) : $recent->the_post();?>

^^ That will pull the recent post from the Category
 
I know that bit of code and was messing around with it last night.

I don't know if this is helpful for anyone, but I ended up using the aggregator theme.
Aggregator | Templatic

Wordpress allows every Category to display it's own feeds. So http://www.domain.com/category-name/feeds/ becomes it's classified RSS feed.

I created widgets on the homepage with that theme and added individual categories in those widgets with their RSS links. Works like a charm so far.

Thank you for all the help.
