    Hello!

    I’ve a custom theme and a page in it that display only posts from a specified category.

    So, i’ve this code:

    <?php
/*
Template Name: Pagina Eventi
*/
?>

<?php get_header(); ?>

<?php
$query= 'cat=4';
query_posts($query);
?>

<div id="content">
<table width="900px"  style="height:580px !important;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
[...]
<?php query_posts('showposts=4'); ?>
<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

        <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
			[...]
            <div class="post">
                <h3 id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"><a>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h3>

                <div class="entry_eventi">
                    <?php the_content('Read the rest of this entry ?'); ?>
[...]

        <?php endwhile; ?>
</table>

<div class="navigation">
<div class="alignleft"><?php previous_posts_link('? Previous Entries') ?></div>
<div class="alignright"><?php next_posts_link('Next Entries ?','') ?></div>
</div>

    <?php else : ?>

        <h2 class="center">Not Found</h2>
        <p class="center"><?php _e("Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn't here."); ?></p>
        <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . "/searchform.php"); ?>

    <?php endif; ?>
[..]
</table>

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

    Where “[…]” I’ve cut some html code.

    Now, this code display correctly the “Next/Previous Entries”, but when I click on it the url become https://www.mysite.tld/page/2/ but posts remain the same than previous page, nothing change.

    Where am i wrong?

    Thanks

  • Replace:

    <?php query_posts('showposts=4'); ?>

    with:

    <?php query_posts($query_string . 'posts_per_page=4'); ?>

    Thank you!

    But if i replace my code with yours, i receive this message:
    “Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn’t here.”

    Perhaps there is something else wrong with your template file? Or you replaced the wrong line? That change should work just fine.

    I have replaced the line before, as you suggested:
    <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

    You can see the whole code of the page here: https://pastebin.com/JqN0j2sW

    You have 2 queries in that file! Which one do you want to keep? Or do you want to combine theme?

    Combine them ??

    Replace: 

    <?php
$query= 'cat=4';
query_posts($query);
?>
<div id="content">
<table width="900px"  style="height:580px !important;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
[...]
<?php query_posts('showposts=4'); ?>

    with:

    div id="content">
<table width="900px"  style="height:580px !important;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
[...]
<?php query_posts($query_string . 'cat=4&posts_per_page=4'); ?>

    How many posts do you have in the category with the id of 4?

    Currently 7.

    Try <?php // query_posts($query_string . 'cat=4&posts_per_page=4'); ?> and see what happens

    Thread Starter Pepozzo

    (@pepozzo)

    I can see the page without any post, only the page title.

    Now revert it to <?php query_posts($query_string . 'cat=4&posts_per_page=4'); ?>

    <?php query_posts('cat=4&posts_per_page=4'); ?>
    i can see last 4 posts from the right category, but as i said yesterday, when i click on the “previous entries” it shows me the same 4 posts again.
