How to display category specific post content on a page

Question

Codex

You’ll find out that WordPress has three different types of templates, that you can use:

A) For built in taxonomies: Category & Tag

B) For custom taxonomies.

The template engine will search for such templates when you request a category/tag/custom taxonomy archive page.

taxonomy-{$taxonomy_slug}-{$term}.php
- » taxonomy-{$taxonomy_slug}.php
- » taxonomy.php
category-{$slug}.php
- » category-{$id}.php
- » category.php
tag-{$slug}.php
- » tag-{$id}.php
- » tag.php
