You need to create a page of post. It is quick and very easy
HERE IS HOW
STEP 1
Copy your page.php template and rename it to something like page-pop.php
STEP 2
Open up the template and add the following header right at the top to tell wordpress it is a page template
<?php
/**
* Template Name: Page of Posts
*/
get_header(); ?>
Step 3
You need to modify the loop so that it will display the selected category's posts . We are going to make use of WP_Query
to create a custom query in which we will call posts from the specific category
This is how your new loop and query should look like. Here you make use of the cat
parameter in WP_query
to retrieve posts from the category ID given. Just change 1
to the category ID you need to get posts from
<?php
// The Query
$the_query = new WP_Query( 'cat=1&posts_per_page=10' );
// The Loop
if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) {
echo '<ul>';
while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) {
$the_query->the_post();
echo '<li>' . get_the_title() . '</li>';
}
echo '</ul>';
} else {
// no posts found
}
/* Restore original Post Data */
wp_reset_postdata();
?>
STEP 4
Now save the template, create a new page and assign this template to it. You should now have a page that displays posts from your desired category
