    Hey,

    I’m having a category page, where I see the last six entries of the category. On the end of the category page I would like to have a link like ?Show all? that shows all entries of this category in my search template.

    How can I solve this??

    I tried to put the category ID (7) in the URL (https://www.mydomain.com/blog/?s=7, but that was obviously wrong. He just was searching for the number ?7?. Please! Could anybody help?

    Would be nice to get any response. Thx.
    Ka

    hello nsathees,

    thanks, for your reply. but with this template tag i just get a list of my categories. I need one link (in this case: ?show all?) to all posts from one category in my search result template. actually like a search, just without the search field and the submit button. just the link.

    sorry, if this is confusing. i try to make it as clear as possible. :/

    thats actually how i create the link until now, but – as i wrote – it’s wrong, because he doesn’t give me the search results for everything in category 7, he just is searching for the nr. ?7?. 

    <a href="https://www.mydomain.com/blog/?s=<?php $category = get_the_category(); echo $category[0]->category_parent; ?>">
	show all
</a>

    problem solved:

    to give me all posts from one category as a search result i just have to create the link with

    <a href="https://mydomain.com/blog/?s=+&cat=
   <?php $category = get_the_category();
   echo $category[0]->cat_ID;
   ?>">
	thats my link
 </a>

    My result was this right link:
    https://mydomain.com/blog/?s=+&cat=7
