 * Hi,
 * I am building a site locally using MAMP and I have several pages set up as templates
   with which to view categorised posts, I list 12 posts per page and need to set
   up navigation so that viewers of my site can see the other posts beyond the 12
   on the first page. Ideally I want to add the php code to my templates so I can
   control each page template.
 * How do I find out the page ID of post overflow pages e.g for all the posts beyond
   the 12 I show on the first category page.
 * Can anyone help please?

 * assuming you are using custom queries to get the categorized posts, add the ‘
   paged’ parameter to the query; [http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Pagination_Parameters](http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Pagination_Parameters)

 * Hi Alchymyth
 * Thanks for the response I will check it our tomorrow when I am back in the office.
 * I am rather new to php and the workings of wordpress so I’m not sure exactly 
   how the page are set up, but on first glance your link to class references looks
   to be very useful.
