How to list Child Pages blog style

[sam-vital]

Hi,

I'm creating a News/Updates section for a client and they would like the 3 most recent Updates previewed on the home screen. So this would be Title and Date Posted. These blog posts will be child pages of a News and Updates page, which is a child of the Home page. So it's like Home -> News -> Blog posts. I don't need this to be a nav menu, just something to show the newest updates.

All help is appreciated ?

$mostRecent = $pages->find("parent=123, template=news, sort=-modified, limit=3");
foreach($mostRecent as $teaser) {
	echo "<h3><a href='{$teaser->url}'>{$teaser->title}</a></h3>";
}

123 is simply the id of the parent page, under which your news/blog pages live
