Query all posts

  • How do I query all posts rather than just by a specific category or tag? etc.

    Basically I have a page that uses a custom template. On it I would like to pull in all of the posts for a site. If I use the standard:

    <?php if(have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while(have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>

    Then it just gets the content for that particular page.

    Is there some way I can use the query_posts function to do this?

    Thanks.

  • Try adding:

    <?php
$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
$args= array(
	'posts_per_page' => -1,
	'paged' => $paged
);
query_posts($args);
?>

    just before the start of the Loop.

    thanks, but I ended up getting it to work by passing ‘showposts=-1’ as a parameter.

    pealo86,
    showposts parameter is deprecated. Use posts_per_page instead. e.g ‘posts_per_page=-1‘

    esmi,
    ‘paged’ is not required since ‘posts_per_page=-1‘ will show all post in a single page.
