Category Template not paginating.

Resolved

(@dmzayasplus)

I have the generic category code set up as:

<?php
$args = array ( 'category' => ID, 'posts_per_page' => 5);
$myposts = get_posts( $args );
foreach( $myposts as $post ) :	setup_postdata($post);
 ?>
//Style Posts here
<?php endforeach; ?>

And the styled posts are very simple:

<div class="col-md-6">
			<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><img src="<?php echo uf(person_image); ?>" width="100%"></a>
		</div>
		<div class="col-md-6 text-right">
			<h3 style="margin-top:0px;"><em><?php echo uf(project); ?></em> Designer<br /></h3>
			<h1 style="margin:5px 0px;font-weight:bold;"><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
			<p><?php echo the_date(); ?></p>
			<p><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" class="btn btn-primary btn-lg btn-block" role="button">READ THE FIVER >></a></p>
		</div>
		<div class="clearfix"></div>
		<hr>

But when I click to the nav links on the bottom, the next page shows exactly the same posts as the first.

Hi dmzayasplus,

I can’t fully understand what you are doing.

When I read the question and take a look at the first block of code, I get the feeling that you should use a standard query like `<?php
$args = array ( ‘category’ => ID, ‘posts_per_page’ => 5);
$the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
while( $the_query->have_posts() ) {
$the_query->the_post();

//Style Posts here
} ?>`

and then use a snippet like
```
<?php
$big = 999999999; // need an unlikely integer

echo paginate_links( array(
	'base' => str_replace( $big, '%#%', esc_url( get_pagenum_link( $big ) ) ),
	'format' => '?paged=%#%',
	'current' => max( 1, get_query_var('paged') ),
	'total' => $the_query->max_num_pages
) );
?>
```
This snippet uses the paginate_links function and is copied from http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/paginate_links .

The thing is that I don’t really see a pagination-related code in your theme.

If this doesn’t fix the issue, please either paste more of the code you are working on or try experimenting with the function i mentioned.

BR,
Rado
