All posts displayed in Category despite the number specified in admin> settings?

  • I want 6 post to be displayed in the loop on the home page – easy, done. I just set that number in the admin settings.

    But the problem is that I dont want only 6 displayed in the category pages. I would like all of them.

    Ive looked up and down, I know that this must have come up once, can anyonw direct me to that answer?

    for reference my website is: https://travisneilson.com

  • Edit your home page template (perhaps index.php) and just before <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>, try adding the line:

    <?php query_posts('showposts=6');>

    Then via Admin/Settings/Reading, enter the number of posts you want displayed on all other archive pages.

    Thank you so very much! This is exactally what I wanted!

    is there a way to not limit the number of posts when i go to the settings > reading page?

    Not that I’m aware of. You could try editing the relevant templates and adding:

    <?php query_posts('showposts=0');>

    I think that should then display all posts.
