Pagination, need help… | WordPress.org

When I paste the code below into page-sample.php only one post appears and the pagination is absent. I’m trying to create a page that lists posts from a specific category and then ensure it paginates when they exceed a certain number of posts.

you would need a line with query_posts() before the loop;

http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/query_posts

example:
```
<?php $args = array(
'posts_per_page' => 7,
'category_name' => 'specific',
'paged' => get_query_var('paged')
);
query_posts( $args ); ?>
```
for more parameter, see:

Excellent, that resolved the issue. I think I just had my codex docs mixed up. Thanks!
