   <?php
   			#RETRIEVE CATEGORY ID
   			$category_id = get_cat_id(single_cat_title("", false));
   
   			#RETRIEVE PAGE
   			$page = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
   
   			#RETRIEVE PRODUCTS
   			query_posts('cat=$category_id&paged=$page&posts_per_page=10');
   
   			#DISPLAY PRODUCTS
   			while(have_posts())
   			{
   				the_post();
   				?>
   
   			<?php
   			}
   			?>

   This is my code. I found the fix on this forum and added it to my code. However, it still does not work in my blog. I still see similar posts on page 1 and 2.

   I am trying to display posts from 1 category only.

   			#RETRIEVE PRODUCTS
   			$products = new WP_Query("cat=$category_id&showposts=10&paged=$page");
   
   			#DISPLAY PRODUCTS
   			while($products->have_posts())
   			{
   				$products->the_post();

   I found a solution. Use WP_Query instead!

   You didn't have to use WP_Query.
   What you had in your first example was almost perfect.

   The problem was that you need to use double quotes instead of single quotes when passing variables to the query_posts() function.

   <?php
   #RETRIEVE CATEGORY ID
   $category_id = get_cat_id(single_cat_title("", false));
   
   #RETRIEVE PAGE
   $page = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
   
   #RETRIEVE PRODUCTS
   query_posts("cat=$category_id&paged=$page&posts_per_page=10");
   
   #DISPLAY PRODUCTS
   while(have_posts()) {
   	the_post();
   ?>
   <?php
   }
   ?>
