    I am using my category.php file to set the style for each category page once selecetd as they will all look the same but my pages are not filtering:

    <div class="row">

			<?php query_posts('showposts=-1'); ?>
			<?php if (have_posts()): while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
				  <div class="col-xs-3">
				   <div id ="top-news-title"><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></div>
				 </div>
			<?php endwhile; endif; wp_reset_query(); ?>
	  </div>

    The above code display all posts but I need it to display all posts of the current category as this page is what is displayed once a category link has been selected.

    I fixed it with the below code!

    <div class="row">
	 <?php
		global $post;
		if(is_category() || is_single()){
		foreach(get_the_category() as $category)
		{
		$current = $category->cat_ID;
		$current_name = $category->cat_name;

		$myposts = get_posts(array('category__in' => array($current)));

			}

		}

		foreach($myposts as $post) :
		setup_postdata($post);
		?>
				<div class="col-xs-3">
						<div id ="top-news-title"><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></div>
				</div> 

<?php endforeach;wp_reset_query(); ?>

 </div>

    My issue now is adding a message if there are no posts in that category. I tried:

    <?php endwhile; else: ?>
<p>Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.</p>

 <?php endif; ?>

    But that gives me the dreaded white screen, any help would be greatly appreciated!
