    Try changing your first query to this:


    $global $query_string;
    WP_Query($query_string . "&posts_per_page=10&category_name=life-sciences&paged=".$paged);

      $the_query = new WP_Query("posts_per_page=10&category_name=life-sciences&paged=".$paged);


      with:


      $global $query_string;
      query_posts($query_string . "&posts_per_page=10&category_name=life-sciences&paged=".$paged);

      and then replace


      <?php $count=0; while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post(); ?>

      with

      <?php $count=0; while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

      "Sorry" this thing is not working..
      Breaking the code when next page browsed...

      There are two different category "Life Sciences" and "General Lab" and there are sub-categorical product on "Life Sciences".
      Now in "General Lab" has all the sub-category and products which "Life sciences" have. Same product.

    Hi,

    With reference to WordPress Template hierarchy. http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Hierarchy
    Why don't you try using different category templates.
    category-{slug}.php - If the category's slug were general-lab, WordPress would look for category-general-lab.php

    Use a normal WordPress loop in the template and your pagination issues will be solved.

    Use category.php for your other categories and use category-{slug}.php for all special categories that you want to have different styles or codes or highlights.

    Thanks.
