 * Currently i have this code running my posts page, showing categories 3,4,5,6 
   and if there is a multiple of 2 it prints the div.example, its working perfectly.
 *     ```
       <?php $page = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
       		$postcnt = 0; query_posts("showposts=99&cat=3,4,5,6");
       		if (have_posts()) { ?>
       			<div class="example">
       		<ul class="content_cols">
       			<?php
       			while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); $postcnt++;?>
   
       				<li>
   
       <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" title="View more details of <?php the_title(); ?>"><img src="http://jezthompson.co.uk/ransom_note/wp-content/uploads/<?php echo $data[ 'event_image' ]; ?>" alt = "work image"/></a> 
   
       <h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
   
       <div class="clearFix"><!--x--></div>
       </li>
   
       				<?php if($postcnt % 2 == 0) { ?>
       					</ul>
       					<?php if($postcnt % 6 == 0) { ?>
   
       					<div class="line"></div>
       					<div class="clearFix"><!--x--></div>
       						</div>
   
       						<div class="example">
       					<?php } ?>
       					<ul class="content_cols">
       				<?php } ?>
       			<?php
       			endwhile; ?>
       			</ul>
       			<div class="clearFix"><!--x--></div>
       			</div>
       			<?php
       			} ?>
       ```
   
 * However i need the archive.php to act the same way and i’m not sure how…
 * I know its something to do with this..
 *     ```
       <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); $data = get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'key', true );?>
       ```
   
 * When you click on a category and it just shows the posts from that particular
   one, i need that page to work like the above posts page really.
 * Any ideas…?
 * Many thanks.

 * I’ve managed to get it partly working here..
 *     ```
       <div class="example">
       		<ul class="content_cols">
   
       		<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post();     $data = get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'key', true );?>
   
       		<li class="cat<?php $category = get_the_category(); echo $category[0]->cat_ID;?>">
   
       <h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
   
       <div class="clearFix"><!--x--></div>
       		</li>
   
       						<?php if($postcnt % 2 == 0) { ?>
       						<?php if($postcnt % 6 == 0) { ?>
       					</ul>
       					<div class="line"></div>
       					<div class="clearFix"><!--x--></div>
       						</div>
   
       						<div class="example">
       					<?php } ?>
       					<ul class="content_cols">
       				<?php } ?>
       			<?php
       			endwhile; ?>
       			</ul>
       			<div class="clearFix"><!--x--></div>
       			</div>
   
       	<?php else :
   
       		if ( is_category() ) { // If this is a category archive
       			printf("<h2>Sorry, but there aren't any posts in the %s category yet.</h2>", single_cat_title('',false));
       		} 
   
       	endif;
       ?>
       ```
   
 * However, its only putting one li in each .example div, rather than putting 6 
   li into one div.
    Stuck now 🙁
