 * hello
 * i have a problem, perhabs you can help me…
    i put the categorie widget on the
   right sidebar and i have maincategory & subcategories. So if i click on the maincategory
   i get 10 articles from this category. But the subcategory pulled me to the newest
   article of that subcategory with the single.php layout. It shows me only 1 Artice
   but i want to have more…
 * so i found an article about the category.php and category-x.php that i can upload
   for every categorie_id. It’s doesn’t work for me. I go to the admin category 
   taking the id and uploading the category-16.php next to the category.php. It 
   shows me only that single.php article…
 * i also remove the categorie widget, editing the sidebar.php with
    `<?php wp_list_categories('
   orderby=name&show_count=3'); ?>` but it does’nt work
 *  argh i’m searching more than 10hours for that, writing on a german forum, no
   one answer. someone can help me ?
 * greetings wurzelriemen

 * Looks like you need to start troubleshooting your theme’s category.php file. 
   Or archive.php if your theme doesn’t have a category.php file.
 * Have you tried:
 * – deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works,
   re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).
 * – switching to the default theme to confirm that it is a theme-related problem?
