Query posts and Pagination Links Broken

<?php
$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
$args= array(
	'category_name' => 'news',
	'paged' => $paged
);
query_posts($args);
?>

A little more info one where to place the code would be brilliant.

Do I need to add this to every place ive currently used the Query_Posts?
Or just on the posts I would like to Paginate?

With the code above placed just on the main “News” part of the query it looks like this (and doesnt work still)

Apologies for posting 3 times. Any toher help available? Or the above code being explained? cheers

Problem being I have 3 seperare categories being displayed on 1 page

What template file is this in?
Do you use multiple loops?
Put the full full content of the template file you are using in the pastebin.

Pastebin Link : https://wordpress.pastebin.com/tBisk8P2

This is in the homepage template

$wp_query->query('cat=3&showposts=5'.'&paged='.$paged);

$paged is never defined in this query as per above…..

This is with the code added from further up the page, that I think I entered wrong… https://wordpress.pastebin.com/XcPAtR9F

Have you tried it with the code esmi gave you?
Pastebin link: https://wordpress.pastebin.com/5Rgs3udr

This is the code asmi gave me: https://wordpress.pastebin.com/XcPAtR9F

The code you just gave me didnt work either (https://wordpress.pastebin.com/5Rgs3udr)

well, now I’m more confused…you have the query on line 17…. and then what looks like a loop starting at 27, but no loop opening (if have posts/while have posts…)

and no endwhile, so that first loop isn’t really a loop….so that may be what throws that pagination

line 38 and 52 are both nav links, not in a loop

and the 63 and 81 are queries again, that do have full loop (while have posts/end while) but no pagination in the query…..

Rev. Voodoo, Which pastebin link are you referring to? (Theres about 3 different ones above haha).

Could you please submit the edit on the pastebin too and ill test it out.

I was referring to this one

Which one are you using that you are trying to get functioning correctly?

Im trying to get any that will get the pagination to work just on that main ‘News’ Category…

I added while ( have_posts() ) : the_post() after query_posts($args); and then the endwhile After the post styling, then the navigation straight after endwhile.

Still doesnt work… Did i add them in the wrong order/wrong place?

Something like that for the first loop….

Thing is I’m not sure why you have double nav, etc for the news section…. Also had to reset the query after that

Every query should have a reset after it on multiple loops…. there is definitely more work to be done here, just guiding a bit….
