Listing posts from a given Category inside a page

  • Hi all: I am populating a wordpress site, with posts and pages. The posts can be easily categorized, which is great. I would like to create pages that list the posts in a given category (dynamically, so that I don’t have to statically add URLs to the page!). How do I do this in wordpress? Thanks in advance.

    Example: if I have 2 posts under Category = Mountain Bike, I would like to create a page that lists the links to these 2 posts. Page content:
    ==============
    Welcome to the mountain bike section. The links below provide information about tuning tips and riding techniques.
    * URL to link 1
    * URL to link 2
    * [auto add URL to link 3 when added under the Mountain Bike Category]
    =============

  • You can create a Page Template, then in that Page Template use the template tag, query_posts(), to display posts in that category. After you create the Page Template assign it to a Page.

    Also, don’t forget Category Templates that might be used for this purpose. You could code one category template (e.g. category.php) for your theme and display the Category Description before displaying the posts.
