Hi,
Question 1
I would like to show more posts in my categories pages instead of the original (News2 theme) ie 3 - 2 - 3.
How can I achieve it. Check my categories pages here : http://www.togo-online.co.uk/afrique/ , http://www.togo-online.co.uk/togo/ etc

Question 2
At the bottom of each category page if you click on OLDER POSTS you get this error page not found message : It seems we can’t find what you’re looking for.
Perhaps searching, or one of the links below, can help.

Regards

Hi,

Regarding your questions:
1. You can change the default layout in News2 -> TEmplate Options -> Features and "Layout for the category/archive pages." settings section.
2. Could you send me a PM with backend and FTP access to your website? Then I'll be able to check the issue exactly.

I have the same problem in terms of clicking the Older Posts button at the bottom of the page and you get a page not found rather than the page 2 of the category. Like on this page here: http://www.jamjosandbox.com/magazine/ca ... cs/page/2/

This is not the same issue unfortunately. If you go to the bottom of the category page here: http://www.jamjosandbox.com/magazine/category/politics/ and click on the OLDER POSTS button you see an error comes up like a page not found when of course it should go to page 2 here: http://www.jamjosandbox.com/magazine/ca ... cs/page/2/

but you have:
2 rows x 2 columns
1 rows x 2 columns
1 rows x 2 columns
so it's 8 total articles and you've set 10 in settings -> reading,
I've changed your second line into 2 rows x 2 columns - now should be ok.

Hi Piotr, I think we have our wires crossed here. I am referring to Question 2 of the original post above...

At the bottom of each category page if you click on OLDER POSTS you get this error page not found message : It seems we can’t find what you’re looking for.

The layout is fine the point I am making is if I have 100 posts in a category the OLDER POSTS button at the bottom of the page does not work - it breaks and gives a 404 error. The layout of 10 or 8 is not the question on this post here. Hope this is now clearer.

So to be clear ignore the layout of the category as I will have hundreds of posts per category. When you go this category http://www.jamjosandbox.com/magazine/category/politics/ scroll to the bottom and click on OLDER POSTS and bang it breaks and gives a 404 error here: http://www.jamjosandbox.com/magazine/ca ... cs/page/2/

I of course want the user to be able to go to page 2 and page 3 and so on. Basically the pagination in the category layout is broken here.

Sorry my mistake. I see what you mean, apologies. The settings > readings must match. I understand now.
