   Hi guys,

   I have this piece of code pumping out a category loop on one of my WP pages (blog page):

   <?php // if blog page
if(is_page('9')){ ?>
<?php // pull in desired category post content
$lastposts = get_posts('numberposts=10&category=19');
foreach($lastposts as $post) : setup_postdata($post); ?>
<h2>" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
<?php the_title(); ?>
</h2>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<p class="postmetadata">
<?php the_tags('Tags: ', ', ', '
'); ?>
Posted in
<?php the_category(', ') ?>
|
<?php edit_post_link('Edit', '', ' | '); ?>
<?php comments_popup_link('No Comments »', '1 Comment »', '% Comments »'); ?>
</p>
<?php endforeach;
} ?>


   My only issue with the code is that I don't get posts navigation now in order to navigate to older posts and back again, since my numberposts=10 parameter limit is 10.

   Could anyone help me modify the above so it allows my users to navigate to older posts and back again? The only solution I have right now is to display infinite posts (not very scalable :[ )

   Thanks in advance,
   L

   I wonder if using the technique described in How to easily display links to both Pages and Categories in the blog navigation header? would be easier:

   To display a link to your News Category along with the other Pages in your navigation header, install a plugin such as Page Links To, create a Page called News, then in the Page Links To module, in the "Point to this URL:" field, enter the URL for the News category. Note: to determine the URL for the News Category, just visit that Category in your blog and copy the URL in your browser address bar.
