    This is the site I am working on: http://www.blog.halfdane.dk
    I have set the number of posts on the frontpage to be 5. The link “Older” should take you to the older posts, but it just loads the first 5 again.
    Help is highly appreciated.

    Thanks!

    Ok, I have found out that a line in index.php that makes the frontpage only show a certain category, is creating the problem:
    <?php query_posts(‘cat=18&showposts=’.get_option(‘posts_per_page’)); ?>

    I don´t know how to solve it though. Anyone?

    try:

    <?php query_posts('cat=18&showposts='.get_option('posts_per_page').'paged='.get_query_var('paged')); ?>

    If it helps to see what is going on, here is my index.php:
    (If I remove the line in bold, the problem disappears, but so does my selection of category.)

    my bad – forgot the ampersand & before the 'paged=';

    <?php query_posts('cat=18&showposts='.get_option('posts_per_page').'&paged='.get_query_var('paged')); ?>

    hopefully, this gets it to work …
