I am using the code below to display posts defined as a custom-post-type and filtered by a custom-taxonomy of 'england'.

I've tried using 'posts_per_page=5' in the query_posts function but this brings up a completely different set of posts from one of my post categories of type 'news'. When I remove the posts-per-page from the query, it returns the listings I want but it defaults to the default 10 set within the Wordpress Settings. How do I override it in the code below?

 <?php query_posts( array( 'country' => 'event-england') ); ?> <?php if( is_tax() ) { global $wp_query; $term = $wp_query->get_queried_object(); $title = $term->name; } ?> <ul> <?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?> <li><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li> <?php endwhile; else: ?> <?php endif; ?> </ul>

  • have you tried it this way: <?php query_posts( array( 'posts_per_page' => 5, 'country' => 'event-england') ); ?> Commented May 24, 2011 at 13:48

Something like this is what you need. The Codex page for WP_Query is very helpful

$args = array('post_type' => '<your custom post type name>', 'posts_per_page' => 5, 'tax_query' => array( array( 'taxonomy' => '<your custom taxonomy name>', 'field' => 'slug', 'terms' => 'event-england' ) ) ) $query = new WP_Query($args)
