• When you go to page three or further WP uses index.php instead of the category view, and I can’t figure out why.

    Here is the category view on page one, and here is on page three.

    Here is my loop:

    <?php query_posts( 'p=50' );
    	while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
    
       /* THE MOD INDEX POST */
    
    <?php endwhile;
    	rewind_posts(); ?>
    
    <?php rewind_posts();
    	if (have_posts()) :
    	query_posts("cat=9,-14&posts_per_page=5&paged=$paged");
    	echo "$paged";
    	while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
    
      */ THE POST */
    
    <?php endwhile; else: ?>
    <p>Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.</p>
    
    <?php endif; ?>

    Does anybody see anything wrong with my query? Am I doing something wrong?

    I have displayed the file at the top of the page to show that after page three it breaks.

    I would appreciate any help, as I am building a custom WP Theme for my website
