 * Hi, this is my first post.
    I can not resolve my problem with taxonomy page. 
   I’d like to hove just 5 post per page, this is my code
 *     ```
       <div id="content">
   
       <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
        <?php while ($wp_query->have_posts()) : $wp_query->the_post(); ?>
         <div class="carbox clearfix" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
            <em>do something</em>
         </div>
        <?php endwhile; ?>
         <?php getpagenavi(); ?>
       <?php else : ?>
       	<h1 class="title">Not Found</h1>
       	<p>Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn't here.</p>
       <?php endif; ?>
       ```
   
 * Does anyone have a solution?
    Thanks

 * Try replacing this:
 *     ```
       <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
       ```
   
 * with this:
 *     ```
       <?php global $wp_query;
       query_posts(
          array_merge(
             $wp_query->query,
             array('posts_per_page' => 5)
          )
       );
       if (have_posts()) : ?>
       ```

 * Thanks, it works.
    But I don’t understand why the paginations doesn’t work. For
   the first result I have `www.test.it/?condition=usato` (and all it’s ok) but 
   when I click on second page `www.test.it/?condition=usato&paged=2` is a **404
   not found page**
 * why?
    thanks a lot

 * I am not familiar with the getpagenavi() function.
 * First, try adding the paged arg to the query. Change this:
 *     ```
       <?php global $wp_query;
       query_posts(
          array_merge(
             $wp_query->query,
             array('posts_per_page' => 5)
          )
       );
       ```
   
 * to this:
 *     ```
       <?php global $wp_query;
       $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
       query_posts(
          array_merge(
             $wp_query->query,
             array('posts_per_page' => 5,
                   'paged' => $paged )
          )
       );
       ```
   
 * If that does not work, and you are using a free theme, post a link to its download
   site so I can examine the code. If it is a paid theme, you will need to ask the
   theme supplier.

 * I don’t see anything obvious in the theme. Can you post a link to your site?
 * Also, try saving the permalinks settings under Admin->Settings->Permalinks.

   you want I give you wp user to see the code Thanks

   default.
