Categories not ‘Categorizing’ Posts
-
Hello!
I am trying to separate different blog posts into categories. So far, I’m able to create categories and add posts to the categories without issue. The problem arises when I click on the category link at the top of the post and it takes me to a page containing all of my posts (even if these posts are registered under a different category). The heading at the top of the page says “Category: [category name]” but everything shows.
Is there something I’m missing? How do I ensure a category page only shows posts associated with that category?
Thank you!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
I’ve taken the time to look into your website and noticed that it’s actually using the WordPress.org software and is hosted by a different provider.
WordPress.org is the same foundational software we use here at WordPress.com, but it’s set up a little differently. Because of this, the specific help you may need can be different. To get the most appropriate help for your issue, I’d recommend posting your question in the official WordPress.org support forums, which you can find here: https://wordpress.org/support/forums/.
That said, I would also like to mention an alternative for you. You can migrate your website to WordPress.com. We are a managed-hosting platform, which means we take care of all the maintenance and security tasks so that you can focus on creating content for your website. We also offer dedicated WordPress support through both email and live chat to ensure your questions or issues are handled promptly and efficiently.
If this sounds like something that could interest you, we’ve built an easy-to-use tool specifically for migrating WordPress sites from other platforms to WordPress.com. You can learn more about how to use this tool here: https://wordpress.com/support/import-using-move-to-wordpress-com/
You can also take a look at our various plans and what they offer on this page: https://wordpress.com/pricing/
If you have any other questions or if there’s anything else you’d like to discuss, don’t hesitate to let me know.

@timsaari2002 – if it helps, I’ve seen a similar issue in the past. Look for the query loop setting in your templates, and be sure “inherit query from template” is toggled on. That should fix this. :)
Use the Query Loop block to display blog posts (or other content types such as pages, testimonials, or projects) anywhere on your site. This block is similar to the Blog Posts block, but with greater flexibility to display your content using many different parameters and visual layouts. This guide will show you how to use it.
