Only show categories inside one static page

  • I would like to use WordPress as a CMS and would like to have say 5 static pages that don’t show the WordPress loop and one static page that only show the categories (with a picture of each one) that are clickable to lead you to a post page with information.

    I would like some sort of hack for my index.php page that only shows categories in certain pages. Rather than having to make individual pages for each and every one of the static pages. I need the pages to be editable from within the admin section of WordPress too.

    How can I go about in this…

  • WordPress Pages need to retain The Loop in order to display your page content and allow you to edit that content. Under normal circumstances, they won’t show any posts – just the content you want displayed on that page.

    So, as I understand it, you simply need 5 WordPress Pages and 1 category list, yes?

    Hi esmi,
    I solved the issue by making four links to the category pages manually. I have made it so that the new posts fall into these categories. Now I have whole different problem with configuring e-commerce… Can’t get the category groups to show…

    But thanks for replying!
