 * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp_query-multi-post-not-working/)
 * I have a page separated into multiple sections and multiple divs.
    I want each
   div to contain a post from my WordPress backend I can edit If i need to.
 * I don’t know php or code much to be honest, so I looked up on the Worpress documentation
   how I could get this done.
 * I tried their tips but the page is not coming up.
 * Can anyone assist?
 * the code for my index.php is attached below, I don’t know what I’m doing wrong.
 *     ```
       <?php get_header(); ?>
       <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN">
       <html>
       <head>
       <meta name="generator" content="HTML Tidy for Linux (vers 25 March 2009), see www.w3.org">
       <title></title>
       </head>
       <body>
       <div class="gal_1">// The Query <?php $query = new WP_Query( 'category_name=1' );
   
       // The Loop
       while ( $query1->have_posts() ) {
               $query1->the_post();
       }
   
       /* Restore original Post Data
        * NB: Because we are using new WP_Query we aren't stomping on the
        * original $wp_query and it does not need to be reset with
        * wp_reset_query(). We just need to set the post data back up with
        * wp_reset_postdata().
        */

               echo '<li>' . get_the_title( $query2->post->ID ) . '</li>';
