How do I include posts on a page?

It turns out the theme I’m using had this “blog” template…so I tried using that, I figured it would take posts out of the blog category but it didn’t work out.

So, it displays posts on a page, that’s good. But I don’t know how to specify the category it displays posts from.

In the blog.php file:

<?php
			$wp_query = new WP_Query();
			$wp_query->query( array( 'posts_per_page' => get_option( 'posts_per_page' ), 'paged' => $paged ) );
			$more = 0;
		?>

		<?php if ( $wp_query->have_posts() ) : while ( $wp_query->have_posts() ) : $wp_query->the_post(); ?>

			<div id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" class="<?php hybrid_entry_class(); ?>">

				<?php hybrid_before_entry(); // Before entry hook ?>

				<div class="entry-content entry">
					<?php the_content( sprintf( __('Continue reading %1$s', 'hybrid'), the_title( ' "', '"', false ) ) ); ?>
					<?php wp_link_pages( array( 'before' => '<p class="pages">' . __('Pages:', 'hybrid'), 'after' => '</p>' ) ); ?>
				</div><!-- .entry-content -->

				<?php hybrid_after_entry(); // After entry hook ?>

			</div><!-- .hentry .post -->

			<?php endwhile; ?>

			<?php hybrid_after_page(); // After page hook ?>

I read over it, thanks. I used the conditional to do it, and it sort of works.

<?php if (in_category(’10’)) { ?>
blah blah post stuff
<?php }; ?>

Now, it displays only posts from the blog category (yay), the only problem is, the post is on the second page.

Before I limited it to only that category, every category post was listed, and the blog one happened to be on the second page. Now it’s staying there for some reason, instead of moving up.
