Hi Esmi

Thanks for responding.

I’ve tried all of those except for fiddling with the memory – there’s only about 8 pages and one post so surely can’t be that can it? This is using a host that I use a lot for WP sites – most of which are a lot bigger. No unusual plugins that I haven’t used before either.

I know, I’m not explaining it well!

Ok so the site area I’m talking about is pretty much like a directory with lots of categories of company for instance – “Restaurants in London”. And on the Restaurants in London category page I’ve obviously got all posts with that category listed along with their content.

The complication is that I have a further category “Premium Ad” (not a child category). I would like all category pages (e.g. “restaurants in London” or “Restaurants in Birmingham”) to not only list those restaurants within it’s category BUT to list first those restaurants that ALSO have the Premium Ad category so those will be at the top of the list.

Obviously listing the posts for the current category is no problem. What I can’t do is come up with a function above that which would list the posts that ALSO have the category “premium-ad”. The closest I can get is to list all posts with the category Premium Ad but I can’t work out how to make it list all posts in current category & category=”premium-ad” without hard-coding the current category (which I can’t do because the template is for use for all categories).

<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

 <?php
   $premiumposts = get_posts('category=63');
    foreach($premiumposts as $post) :
    setup_postdata($post);
 ?>

 <h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
    <?php the_content(); ?>
    <?php endforeach; ?>

    <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

    <div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
      <h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>

       <div class="entry">
       <?php the_content('Read the rest of this entry &raquo;'); ?>
       </div> <!-- end entry -->

Thanks for this dnusim – I’ll give it a go and report back!

Yes – still got the problem.

Ahh! I had no idea you could add to quicktags!

Thank you very much for the quick response – this will save me loads of problems.
