  Hello, I have been searching everywhere to find a way to list posts from a certain category on a page. After making custom page templates and looking trying various things I finally found out how to here http://en.support.wordpress.com/category-pages/

  Now the problem is the page does not look right unless I am using the custom template I have made. Is there a way for assign the page template to the category page?

  Also the permalink comes up as category 1 can I change that too?

  So I want a list of posts for the category of photography http://www.adventeurs.com/photography

  but this is what the category page looks like
  http://www.adventeurs.com/category/1/

  please help
  thanks

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hello!

  I don’t think there is a way to assign a custom page template to the category or to change the permalink to the Category.

  I did find the link to your Photography Category: http://adventeurs.com/category/photography/

  What exactly did you want to change about the page layout?

  Thanks,
  -Tish

  Thanks for the reply!
  I figured it out. I just used the category view and then modified the category.php and that did the trick
