Problens with wp_Query category Filter

  • Hi guys,

    I’m using this function in a custom page to make the loop of the posts in a wordpress page with a little navigation menu.

    <?php
	$temp = $wp_query; $wp_query= null;
	$wp_query = new WP_Query(array('cat' => mangas)); $wp_query->query('showposts=2' . '&paged='.$paged);
	while ($wp_query->have_posts()) : $wp_query->the_post();
?>

    In the theory, the posts must be filtered by the Slug of the category, in this case “mangas”.

    But not, the loop it is showing all the posts from my database.

  • Doesn’t mangas need to be in quotes as well?
    $wp_query = new WP_Query(array(‘cat’ => “mangas”));

    Doesn’t worked

    If the code below doesn’t work, you’re doing something else wrong in that file:

    <?php

/**
 * @link https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Class_Reference/WP_Query
 */
$prefix_query = new WP_Query(array(
    // Use category slug, NOT name.
    'category_name' => 'mangas',
    'posts_per_page' => 2,
    // If get_query_var('paged') doesn’t work, try get_query_var('page').
    'paged' => max(1, get_query_var('paged')),
));

if ($prefix_query->have_posts())
{
    while ($prefix_query->have_posts())
    {
        $prefix_query->the_post();

        echo get_the_title().'<br />';
    }
}
else
{
    echo 'No posts found.';
}

wp_reset_postdata();

?>
