    <?php
			#RETRIEVE CATEGORY ID
			$category_id = get_cat_id(single_cat_title("", false));

			#RETRIEVE PAGE
			$page = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;

			#RETRIEVE PRODUCTS
			query_posts('cat=$category_id&paged=$page&posts_per_page=10');

			#DISPLAY PRODUCTS
			while(have_posts())
			{
				the_post();
				?>

			<?php
			}
			?>

    This is my code. I found the fix on this forum and added it to my code. However, it still does not work in my blog. I still see similar posts on page 1 and 2.

    I am trying to display posts from 1 category only.

    <?php
			#RETRIEVE CATEGORY ID
			$category_id = get_cat_id(single_cat_title("", false));

			#RETRIEVE PAGE
			$page = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;			

			#RETRIEVE PRODUCTS
			$products = new WP_Query("cat=$category_id&showposts=10&paged=$page");

			#DISPLAY PRODUCTS
			while($products->have_posts())
			{
				$products->the_post();

    I found a solution. Use WP_Query instead!

    You didn’t have to use WP_Query.
    What you had in your first example was almost perfect.

    The problem was that you need to use double quotes instead of single quotes when passing variables to the query_posts() function.

    <?php
#RETRIEVE CATEGORY ID
$category_id = get_cat_id(single_cat_title("", false));

#RETRIEVE PAGE
$page = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;

#RETRIEVE PRODUCTS
query_posts("cat=$category_id&paged=$page&posts_per_page=10");

#DISPLAY PRODUCTS
while(have_posts()) {
	the_post();
?>
<?php
}
?>
