How to show all the blog posts in each category?

Say you have 8 or 9 categories.
if user click on the category, I like to show the Posts in that category.

so, they can pick the article they want to read!

any help is appreciated.

Thanks

 

You can try going to Settings/Reading and changing Blog pages show at most to a different number. I don't know if there's a maximum number though.

 

Here is what you are looking for. The key is to execute a query before the instance of the loop. Like this, where the category ID =3, and it is showing 100 posts:

<?php query_posts('cat=3&showposts=100&order=ASC');?>
<?php while(have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<h3 id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
<div class="resize">
<?php the_content(); ?></div>
<?php endwhile; ?>

I did this and it is better than what I had.

Scott: I would like to know on what file I add this?

 

I'm a bit lost here. Most themes do this out of the box with out issue. Care to tell us what's occurring now and what you;re seeing?

 

Any page you want to display your posts within - this could literally be any page. If you are unsure, check out the WP template hierarchy flow chart. This should be very helpful in determining the page you need to edit:
