Quick way to display a “Category archive” as a page in WordPress

1. In your wp-content/themes folder, copy the “category.php” file to “template-categorypage-categoryname.php”.
2. Edit the template-categorypage-categoryname.php.

1. Add

   <?php /** * Template Name: CategoryName Category page

   <?php /** * Template Name: CategoryName Category page

   to the top of the page.

2. After the first

   ?>

    tag, add

   <?php query_posts('cat=[categoryid]&posts_per_page='.get_option('posts_per_page')); ?>

   <?php query_posts('cat=[categoryid]&posts_per_page='.get_option('posts_per_page')); ?>

   Where [categoryid] is your WordPress numeric category ID.

3. Create a new page and choose the template “CategoryName Category page” from the page attributes sidebar widget.
