Even though there are plugins to change templates around, this method is nice and simple. It is better to try and standardise how templates are used, so I think it is reusable enough to use the template itself as a 'traffic cop' :) Thanks for this – I’ve bookmarked it on Del.icio.us!

And I would imagine that with the newer version of Wordpress you would need to modify the index file not the single.php file? I haven’t been able to get this to work.

His solution solved it for me as well. Also, there is a single-quotation character problem if you copy the code from above in the tutorial directly (surrounding the cat id number). With that cleared up, it works great. Thanks for the tutorial and the helpful comments. I had the same problem as Atle had (scroll up to October 2008). His solution solved it for me as well.
