Hi. IMHO it is poor form to use a page template to display multiple posts. Category templates are designed to accomplish exactly what you need without producing errors such as you are experiencing here. I would start by saving this code as category-11.php and re-working it. previous_posts_link() and previous_posts_link() are not designed to work in this context
Filip Van Reeth comments:
Hmm,
Thanks for the information.
I use the category.php to check which category it is and redirect to the right category design template.
<?php
if ( is_category( array ( 11 ) ) ) {
include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/category-01.php');
}
elseif ( is_category( array ( 12 ) ) ) {
include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/category-02.php');
}
else {
include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/category-default.php');
}
?>
How do you think I can fix this?
Does renaming it will solve the problem?
Thank for the quick response ;-)
Michael Fields comments:
No problem. Actually, there is no need to have a file like this at all, it may actually cause problems in the future... WordPress handles all of this for you. I would suggest reading over the template hierarchy Codex page mainly the category template section: http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Hierarchy#Category_display
As for you original question, if you save the page template you posted above (don't forget to delete the template comment from the top) and save it as category-11.php WordPress will automatically include it when category 11 is queried for.
Filip Van Reeth comments:
Hi,
Renamed it to category-11 & category-12.php.
Removed the category.php file.
Removed the template comment.
Still get the error? Or is there something wrong with the code?
Thanks for the help.

http://www.nono.be/category/huisstijlen-en-drukwerk/page/2/
Filip Van Reeth comments:
Thx.
Is there any way to remove the /category/ in the url?
Just so it says www.nono.be/huisstijlen-en-drukwerk

Michael Fields comments:
I would suggest that you try this plugin:
[[LINK href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-htaccess-control/"]]http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-htaccess-control/[[/LINK]]
It is compatible with current version of WordPress
Filip Van Reeth comments:
Sebastien also mentioned a plugin that works.
I asked him if there is any way to do this native without a plugin?
Just for information.
Michael Fields comments:
Not without a plugin or similar code.
Filip Van Reeth comments:
Ok, thanks for the information.
I'm just waiting for the answer of Sebastien.
Then I will select a winner ;-)

Filip,
1-in your file, erase this
<?php
/*
Template Name: Home
*/
?>
2-save your file as category-11.php
3-not delete category.php
4-in category.php erase :
<?php
if ( is_category( array ( 11 ) ) ) {
include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/category-01.php');
}
elseif ( is_category( array ( 12 ) ) ) {
include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/category-02.php');
}
else {
include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/category-default.php');
}
?>
the content of this page http://www.nono.be/huisstijlen-en-drukwerk/ is now generate by category-11.php, so if you want see this page you must use the url of the category 11 which is probably : http://www.nono.be/category/huisstijlen-en-drukwerk/

Filip Van Reeth comments:

Do you know any way to do this native (without a plugin)?
Just for information ;-)
Sébastien | French WordpressDesigner comments:
