Hi WordPress people,
I have created different categories and named them News, Blog, Articles, I have then created 3 Posts and assigned each post to a different category.
What I want to do is display a single category on a page. This would display a list of all the posts within that category with a title, a bit of the text and a link to take it to a page which will show the full Post.
Im not sure which template i need to copy and hack,
Someone please help, google has not been good to me

In the code below you'll find 'cat' => 4, change the 4 to the category id. you can ge the category id if you hover over the category and look at the link at the bottom of your URL. I used this code:
<?php
/*
template name: articles
*/
?>
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div class="container">
<?php
$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
$args= array(
'cat' => 4,
'paged' => $paged
);
query_posts($args);
/*<?php query_posts('cat=4'); PAGINATION DOES NOT WORK WITH THIS STANDARD CODE */
if(have_posts()) : ?><?php while(have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
<h2>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<div class="entry">
<?php content('25'); ?>
</div><!--end entry-->
</div><!--end post-->
<div class="hr"><span class="hide"><hr /></span></div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<div class="navigation">
<div class="alignleft"><?php next_posts_link('« Older Entries') ?></div>
<div class="alignright"><?php previous_posts_link('Newer Entries »') ?></div>
</div>
<?php else : ?>
<div class="post">
<h2><?php _e('Not Found'); ?></h2>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
<div class="clear"></div>
</div><!--end container-->
<?php
include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/sidebar_articles.php');
?>
<div class="clear"></div>
<?php
include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/foot_panel.php');
?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
Hope this helps anyone with the same issue.
