Loop Issue – Archive pages not working

I can’t get this figured out…

When I go to page/2 on my domain the contents from page 1 are displayed. I can’t get to old posts.

Here’s what I think is the problem:

I have a category excluded from the main post and displayed in the sidebar – I have used the following code in my index.php:


<?php get_header(); ?>

<div id="content">
<?php if (is_home()) {query_posts("cat=-11");}?>
<?php if (is_page()) {query_posts("cat=-11");}?>
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="post">
<h2>" title="<?php the_title();?>"><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<div class="entry">
<?php the_content();?>
<?php wp_link_pages();?>
<?php edit_post_link('Edit','<p>','</p>');?>
</div>

<div class="comentarii">
<?php comments_popup_link('There are no comments', 'One Comment', '% Comments', 'comments-link', 'This post does not allow comments'); ?>

<div class="meta">
<p><?php the_time('l, j F Y'); ?>, <?php the_time('G:i'); ?> | Category : <?php the_category(', '); ?>
Tags : <?php the_tags('',', ',''); ?></p>
</div>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>

<div class="navigation">
<?php previous_posts_link(); ?> <?php next_posts_link(); ?>
</div>

<?php wp_reset_query(); ?>
</div>

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

Then, my Sidebar Code is as follows:

<div class="sidebar">
<h2>Curiosities</h2>

<?php
$myPosts = new WP_Query();
$myPosts->query('showposts=20&cat=11');
while ($myPosts->have_posts()) : $myPosts->the_post(); ?>
<h1>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
<?php the_content();?>
<div class="comentarii">
<?php comments_popup_link('There are no comments', 'One Comment', '% Comments', 'comments-link', 'This post does not allow comments'); ?>

<div class="meta">
</div>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php wp_reset_query();?>
<h2>>> More Curiosities</h2>
<p>
<?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar("Sidebar 2") ) : ?>

<?php endif; ?>

</div>
<div class="sidebar1">

<div class="rss">
"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/rss_feed.png" alt="RSS FEED" title="Subscribe using RSS" /><p>
</div>
<div id="search_id">
<form method="get" id="searchform" action="<?php bloginfo('home'); ?>">
<div id="search">
<input type="text" value="" name="s" id="s" class="text" />
<input type="image" id="searchsubmit" src="<?php bloginfo('template_url');?>/images/search_s.png" value="Search" alt="Search" class="button" />
</div>
</form>
</div>

<?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar("Sidebar 1") ) : ?>

<?php wp_list_pages('title_li=<h2>Pages</h2>' ); ?>

<?php wp_list_bookmarks(); ?>

• <h2>Archives</h2>

<?php wp_get_archives('type=monthly'); ?>

<?php endif; ?>

</div>

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated – my site is here.
