• Hi,

    I’m using Arthemia theme. It has two special categories, Headline and Featured, and the posts from these categories are shown in the special area on the first page.

    The problem is that those two categories are excepted when listing posts on the first page to avoid duplicating them, but they are also excepted when browsing the previous pages.

    For example, if I have a post in Featured from 2 days ago, if I browse the pages I cannot see it. It shows only on the first page, but when I add more posts it dissapears. I made a link to list the posts from those categories but this isn’t enough.

    the website is https://tuninghost.ro.

    I hope that i made myself pretty clear on what i’m trying to do ??

  • Maybe try to learn to use correct URLs?
    https://tuninghost.ro/category/headline – it works!
    don’t use backslash in URL, like https://tuninghost.ro/\category\headline

    that’s not my problem ??

    on the page 2 (https://tuninghost.ro/page/2) I cannot see the posts from headline or featured, even if they are older then the ones that i can see.
    this is because of:

    code
    <?php
    $page = (get_query_var(‘paged’)) ? get_query_var(‘paged’) : 1;
    query_posts(“cat=-4,-5&paged=$page&posts_per_page=10”); ?>
    code

    I don’t want the posts from those categories to be shown on the first page, to avoid duplicating posts, but when i switch to page 2,3,etc. I want them to be there..

    I was just planning to use Manageable to switch the category when I want to pull it out of the Features section. Then it would be listed in another category, in the correct time frame.

    More power to you if you get someone to figure out a way to automate that.

    I’m pretty new to this stuff. For example, I’m getting a 404 when I click on page 2 using both the default navi and wp-pagenavi, and I don’t know why.

    That’s why I’m here.

    i think that your problem is related to the permalinks or the link structure.
    check that out in admin panel

    yeah it is.

    the custom structure permalinks only work with the default theme.

    for some reason they’re not working with the arthemia theme.

    driving me insane. .htaccess is writable.

    resolved. in the settings tab – reading – blog pages to show at most – the # had to match the number in the arthemia index.php (line 73 i believe) that denotes how many posts to show in the bottom section of the front page

    everything’s working now. great. thanks to joern at michael’s site for the brainstorming help.
