This is the code in my index.php file. The code to output my posts is in a different file because I also need it for a load more ajax call, but I suppose that the code to output the posts is not necessary for this issue.

code in pastebin

Thanks for you reply.
I tested it like this but the result is still 94.

both

$args = array('posts_per_page' => 7, 'paged' => $current_page,'category' => $category_id, 'post_type' => 'post', 'suppress_filters' => false);
$postslist = new WP_Query( $args );
die ($postslist->max_num_pages);

(with category in the args array)
and

$args = array('posts_per_page' => 7, 'paged' => $current_page, 'post_type' => 'post', 'suppress_filters' => false);
$postslist = new WP_Query( $args );
die ($postslist->max_num_pages);

(without category in the args array)
show 94 on the page.
