I’m also having this problem, and I’d rather not change plugins. Does anyone know what’s wrong? You can see that they are out of order on this page: https://thenormalschool.com/anything-will-be-easy-after-this-by-bethany-maile/

For example, it goes 20, 21, 35. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It works! Thanks so much!

Hmm… Well here’s my code:

<h1>Nonfiction</h1>
<?php query_posts('category_name=nonfiction&showposts=4');
while (have_posts()) : the_post();
  // do whatever you want
?>
<div id="post">

<div id="thumb">
<?php
  preg_match_all("/(<img [^>]*>)/",get_the_content(),$matches,PREG_PATTERN_ORDER);
  for( $i=0; isset($matches[1]) && $i < count($matches[1]); $i++ ) {
    echo $beforeEachImage . $matches[1][$i] . $afterEachImage;}?>
</div>
<div id="pcontent">
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<p><em><?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?></em></p>
<p><?php
  ob_start();
  the_content('Read the full post',true);
  $postOutput = preg_replace('/<img[^>]+./','', ob_get_contents());
  ob_end_clean();
  echo $postOutput;
  ?></p>
</div>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>

<div id="more">
<p><?php next_post_link('%link', 'More Nonfiction', TRUE, $in_same_term = TRUE); ?></p>

I’ll admit that I’ve never looked at the standard template hierarchy, but–now that I have–I can’t seem to make heads or tails of my problem. To reiterate, I just want the page to display the older posts on the same page template that the original nonfiction posts appear. Why, when I click on “More Nonfiction” does it revert to the index.php template? How do I stop that from happening? I have tried making category-nonfiction.php and also category-4.php (the cat id) and also page-179.php (it seems to display the extra posts at ?p=179). What am I doing wrong?

I’m not using a theme. I’m using wordpress as a CMS for a website I designed myself.

I’m not using a template. I’m assuming I would need to create a functions.php file and add… what to it?

Got it working… I feel dumb. Thanks so much for the help.

I’ve tried creating a custom menu but it didn’t change anything. Maybe because the theme I’m using defines its menu differently? I’m a total newbie so I don’t know.

Thanks!

It’s my own theme. I simply integrated wordpress with my already existing website.
