Post titles of current category, shows just first five

  • Hello,

    I’m using the following code to show the post titles of the current category.

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

		<ul>
			<?php

			$catsy = get_the_category();
		    $myCat = $catsy[0]->cat_ID;
			$IDOutsideLoop = $post->ID;
			global $post;
			$myposts = get_posts('category='.$myCat);
			foreach($myposts as $post) :
			?>

			<li <?php if($IDOutsideLoop == $post->ID) print 'class="current-cat"' ?>><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
			<?php endforeach; ?>

    But for some strange reason it just shows the last five.
    Anybody has an idea why?

    Thanks, Ka

  • Try $myposts = get_posts('category='.$myCat . '&posts_per_page=10');

    I don’t get it.
    I got the code from another post in the forum. I know it’s bad copying and using code without understanding it. But it looks quite simple.
    It makes no sense why it doesn’t work.

    I tried this from another poster – worked, but still just showed the last five.

    Strange.

    ok, I used this and it weirdly worked.

    <?php if(is_category() || is_single()){
 global $post;
 foreach(get_the_category() as $category)
 {
  $current = $category->cat_ID;
  $current_name = $category->cat_name;
 }
}
echo $current_name . " has id ".$current;
$myposts = get_posts('numberposts=50&category='.$current);
foreach($myposts as $post) : ?>
       <li>
         <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
         <?php the_title(); ?></a>
       </li>
<?php endforeach; ?>

    maybe still somebody has a clue, why the first didn’t work.
