Thank you for some clues.

I made something like this:

$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
query_posts(array(
'cat' => '9',
'posts_per_page' => '1',
'paged'=>$paged,
));

Pagination seems to work, but I have on every category posts from only the one category: ID 9.

If I use:

if (is_category(array('9')) ) {
$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
query_posts(array(
'cat' => '9',
'posts_per_page' => '1',
'paged'=>$paged,
));
}

then every category displays adequate posts. When we go to category ID 9, then we have of course right pagination at bottom, 1 post per page, like settings above.. But when I click for example “next page” or “page 2” or “page 3”
then I have still no posts – Nothing Found.

Any idea what is wrong?

One more thing.
when I use this code:

<?php
global $query_string;
parse_str( $query_string, $args );
if (is_home()){
$args['posts_per_page'] = 5;
query_posts($args);
}
?>

works perfect.
but as you see, only for home page.
There is no problem with display next posts.
Only when I use “if (is_category..” there is problem.

any idea?
Why pagination “doesn’t see” next posts?
