  Error 404 on pagination when changing page:

  http://www.tatiaraujo.com/category/works/

  i’m using the following code on the top of category.php

  <?php
  $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
  
  $current_cat = get_query_var( 'cat' );
  $args = array(
  'orderby' => 'rand',
  'cat' => $current_cat,
  'posts_per_page' => 12,
  );
  query_posts($args);
  
  ?>	

  thanks.

  FIXED

  remove from the top of file category.php the previous code and insert the following in the function.php:

  `
  <?php

  function my_post_queries( $query ) {
  // do not alter the query on wp-admin pages and only alter it if it’s the main query
  if (!is_admin() && $query->is_main_query()){

  // alter the query for the home and category pages

  if(is_home()){
  $query->set(‘posts_per_page’, 3);
  }

  if(is_category()){
  $query->set(‘posts_per_page’, 3);
  }

  }
  }
  add_action( ‘pre_get_posts’, ‘my_post_queries’ );

  ?>

  the problem actually is not resolved. if i use the previous code the pagination works fine but i cant access in any way at wp dashboard because the functions.php of the child theme with the previous code causes fatal error.

  any idea to fix it?

  please help, i want i simply paginations for category pages!

  thank you on advance!

  Hey,

  What seems to be the error when you add the code?

  Please bear in mine our support contract doesn’t cover custom work

  Thanks
