    HI. I’m trying to do multiple queries to differents category in home page. I’m using this

    $args2 = array( 'numberposts' => 4, 'category' => '5', 'order'=> 'ASC', 'orderby' => 'title' );
$postslist2 = get_posts( $args2 );
foreach ($postslist2 as $post2) :  setup_postdata($post2);

endforeach;

    Then

    $args3 = array( 'numberposts' => 4, 'category' => '6', 'order'=> 'ASC', 'orderby' => 'title' );
$postslist3 = get_posts( $args3 );
foreach ($postslist3 as $post3) :  setup_postdata($post3);

endforeach;

    In practice, I make a loop for any category. The problem is that he show wrong posts. For example, he show a post of category 6 in the loop where i’ve indicated the category 4.

    Thanks for anyone who help me and excuse me for my bad english.

  • It sounds like you need to reset the query after each loop. Try adding this after your <?php endforeach; ?>.

    <?php wp_reset_query();?>

    Seems there’s nothing wrong, but it dont’t work.

    This is what im using for multiple loops and its working just fine. It uses wp_reset_postdata(); to reset the loop. Im using this to display posts from six different categories. The categories are defined by name and number of posts are set as well. Hope this helps.

    HI, i use your code and now it works fine, thank you.
    But I can not understand why the other code does not work, it seems to be correct.
    I wish I could understand where the error is.
