    Hey guys. Sorry to bother you but i’m kinda tired of searching the solution.
    It should be simple but i can’t figure it out…or maybe it’s impossible this way.

    First i tried to show all posts from a category on that category page
    Ex: “/category/movies” shows all posts from this category.
    I managed to do it with a little code i found around

    <?php
$cat_id = get_cat_ID( single_cat_title(null, false) );
query_posts( "cat=$cat_id&posts_per_page=-1" );
?>

    Now i want to do the same for the tag page.
    Ex: “/tag/emma-watson”

    Is it possible? Or maybe you have another solution.

    Thank you for your time.

  • By default, WP automatically does that for you.

    This page will list all posts in category fruit
    https://example.com/category/fruit

    This page will list all posts tagged with apple
    https://example.com/tag/apple

    See templates used in all kinds of situation.

    Yeah, but on the theme i use it doesn’t work quite like that.

    And i don’t want the posts with meta and excerpt. Just a list with all of them from that category/tag
    And it works for categories…

    Just wanted to know if the code above can be somehow used for tags or if there is other solution to just list all posts from a tag. When i go to /tag/emma the page should show a list with the posts tagged emma

    Like in this “awesome” screenshot i made ?? https://prntscr.com/1nr908

    Your screenshot is confirming that you do not need to cook up your own query at all. What you need is to alter the content loop in category.php and tag.php to display only post titles.

    You can also have it displayed differently based on different terms too. Like, for example, display only title for category book and display title and thumbnail for category movie. See the Template Hierarchy codex for more details.

    Suppose your /category/movies is actually a regular WP page/sub-page, this could be a problem later, it should be avoided.

    Anyway, if you really need to do that, review this.

    Maybe i wasn’t very clear.
    The screenshot was just to show how i want the posts to appear.

    As i said for the category pages everything works perfect and it shows all posts from that category.

    I should’ve mentioned that for the homepage i show only one post. I set that in “reading settings” -> Blog pages show at most 1.

    So if i let the tag.php by default it only shows the last post.
    I want the entire list of posts with that tag.

    From that link it only shows me how to list posts from a specific tag by setting it’s slug or id. But if i go to another tag i want to show that tag posts.

    Ex: /tag/apple lists all posts with the tag apple
    /tag/orange lists all posts with the tag orange

    Now it shows only the last because of the reading setting. I need somehow to bypass that.

    Hope I Was clear enough and thank you for taking your time and answering me ??

    Ok i managed to solve it with the help of a friend.
    This is the code i used.

    <?php $tagname = get_query_var('tag'); query_posts( "tag=$tagname&posts_per_page=-1" ); ?>

    Maybe someone will need it ??
