But when I implemented it I got all the posts listed under each category, instead of just the posts assigned to that category. </p> <p>If I had a total of 20 posts 5 in each of 4 categories, instead of 4 groups of 5 posts, all 20 would be listed under each of the 4 categories.</p> <p>I just copied your code into a blank author.php file in my child theme. </p>
