I found this page on Clioweb that was perfect.

What's also nice is that it gives you the variable $parent_id to play with if you need to. Copied from his site:

<?php
$page = $wp_query->post;
$parent_id = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT ID FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE ID ='$page->post_parent;'");
if(!$parent_id) $parent_id = $post->ID;
?>

Then, to actually generate the HTML for the page list, I use the following code in the body of my page template:

<?php if(wp_list_pages("child_of=".$parent_id."&echo=0")): ?>
<ul id="subnav">
<?php wp_list_pages("title_li=&child_of=".$parent_id."&sort_column=menu_order&depth=1");?>
</ul>
<?php endif; ?>

But this DID do the trick. I found this page in the support archives. The idea was to create your index.php to look like you wanted (ie. exactly like the "single.php" page) but add this before you start the loop:

<?php
$i=0; // Initialize to Zero;
if (have_posts()) :
while (have_posts()) : the_post();
if ($i==0) {$recentpostid = $post->ID; $i=$i+1;}
endwhile;
endif;
//get only the latest post
$posts = query_posts( 'p='.$recentpostid."'");
?>

and then you start your loop like you normally would…

<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

Worked for me!

Update As Danny pointed out in the comments – there's a simpler way to do this. Put the following code on the page (I put it before the loop and it worked)
<?php $wp_query->is_single = true; ?>
Much simpler :)

But it sounds like it will be run again – so I should be able to enter it next time.

In any case – if I need ideas for plugins to "get back into the swing" – hopefully this "developers wanted" list will still be up and running in June.
