Found the problem, but have no idea on the cure.

This line of code appears at the top of the page:

<?php query_posts(“cat=-71”); ?>

When remarked out the Next/Previous works as advertised.

When the code is functional the Next/Previous will always display the same posts that are on the Home page.

Is there a fix?

jcornide,

I have the exact same problem. You seem to have fixed the problem. Please post the solution. (Then mark the issue resolved…please.)

bump ??

JeremyClark,

Thanks for the link.

What I was trying to figure out is if ‘Pages’ has an equivalent to ‘category-8.php’ (i.e. page-8.php)? Apparently not, but seems like a good idea.

At this point it seems that I’ll need to use if_page(‘8’) to make the changes (thanks for the tip).

exbionic,

Just did something similar. What I wanted was load a particular sidebar for each parent category. What makes the job easier is if you number the single page the same as your category you can get the category number, then it is a simple matter of loading the page–it would look something like ‘singe’.<?php $cat ?>.’.php’

HandySolo,

Thanks. Just what I needed.

Thanks to an earlier post by tptboy, I was able to piece this together. After getting the parent ID# for the parent it is used to select the sidebar file. There is a corresponding sidebar # for each category.

Is any of the code I used deprecated?

$cat_object = $wp_query->get_queried_object();
$cat_parent = $cat_object->category_parent;
include (‘sidebar’.$cat_parent.’.php’);

Found another post with the solution. Make a revision in the user, Admin, and things should correct itself.

Found the solution. That is to use Google’s recently aqcuired company…Feedburner.

Since the acquistion of Feedburner, Google has updated the plugin Feedburner and renamed it Feedsmith. From what I’ve read in the install for the original Feedburner plugin, Feedsmith has made the process even simplier (not having used Feedburner, I cannot verify this).

You can find more infomation at Feedburner’s WordPress plugin F&Q page.

damnhotmess,

It is nice that you fixed the problem. It would also be nice to share the info. Forums are meant to be a give and take proposition and it would be helpful to those who have the same problem to know how you ‘fixed’ the problem.

sparkletack, I feel your frustration. Just went through the same issue myself. What you’ll find is that WP Pages are meant to be static.

Most likely you want to use archive.PHP to do what you want. It is possible to exclude (or include) specific categories.

By definition HTML pages are not dynamic. WordPress is written in PHP because it is dynamic.

Perhaps if you think of the solution from the other side of the coin. Rather than trying to get WP dynamic pages to work within you HTML, why not rephrase the question as, “How do I get my HTML pages to work in WP’s dynamic pages?”

picmax, if I understand what you are saying correctly there is not an index.html file in your folder, but it appears in the URL address anyway.

Either your .htaccess is rewriting the URL address or possibly permalink is doing a rewrite.

Thanks wpdprx for the suggestion.

I also found this one Daily Top 10 that needed a little code tweaking to get it to display exactly the way I wanted.
