    Hello
    I am using exec-PHP so I’m putting some code directly on the page.

    The problem is that when I put the query_posts of a category on my page, it queris it two times!

    what chould i do?

    This is teh code on the page.php file

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

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

<div class="postpage" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">

    and the part of code on the page: 

    <?php query_posts('cat=12&showposts=5'); ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
          <?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
      <?php endwhile; ?>

    Thank you

  • I’d guess that’s because you have 2 (nested) Loops – one from the template and one in the content.

    i know, so can I formulate in another way my loop on the page or on the page.php file so it fixes somehow ?

    A custom page template that includes your query_posts might be the best way to deal with this. You could just start by copying page.php and replacing the default Loop with your code.

    the solution was to formulate the code in teh page.php like this:

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

<div class="postpage" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">

    i have put out the while loop, so now it shows all perfectly.

    Thanks for your time esmi !
