How to Create Category Templates in WordPress

Do you want to create unique category page layouts in WordPress?

With WordPress websites, it’s common to use different templates for categories, tags, custom post types, and taxonomies.

In this article, we’ll show you how to create category templates in WordPress.

Creating category templates in WordPress

By creating templates for categories, you can add specific features on category pages.

For example, you can allow users to subscribe to categories, add category images, show category descriptions and choose a different layout for each category.

Why Create Category Templates in WordPress

WordPress generates individual pages for all your categories. You can view them by visiting a URL like:

https://example.com/category/news/

Most popular WordPress themes come with built-in templates to beautifully showcase category pages. These templates highlight the category title and show the category description below it.

Category page example

However, some themes may not handle this so nicely, or you may want to customize your category pages. This is where you need to create category templates in WordPress.

Let’s take a look at how to create category templates in WordPress.

WordPress Template Hierarchy for Category Pages

WordPress has a powerful templating system that lets you create different templates for different sections of your website.

When displaying any page, WordPress looks for a template in a pre-defined hierarchical order.

To display a category page, it looks for templates in this order: category-slug.php → category-id.php → category.php → archive.php → index.php

First, WordPress will look for a template specific for that particular category using the category slug. For example, category-design.php template will be used to display the ‘Design’ category.

If it does not find a category-slug template, then WordPress will look for a template with category id, for example, category-6.php. After that, it will look for the generic category template which is usually category.php.

If there is no generic category template present, then WordPress will look for a generic archive template, such as archive.php. Lastly, it will use index.php template to display the category.

Here’s our guide to WordPress template hierarchies.

Creating a Category Template for Your Theme in WordPress

Let’s first take a look at a typical category.php template.

<?php
/**
* A Simple Category Template
*/

get_header(); ?> 

<section id="primary" class="site-content">
<div id="content" role="main">

<?php 
// Check if there are any posts to display
if ( have_posts() ) : ?>

<header class="archive-header">
<h1 class="archive-title">Category: <?php single_cat_title( '', false ); ?></h1>


<?php
// Display optional category description
 if ( category_description() ) : ?>
<div class="archive-meta"><?php echo category_description(); ?></div>
<?php endif; ?>
</header>

<?php

// The Loop
while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<small><?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?> by <?php the_author_posts_link() ?></small>

<div class="entry">
<?php the_content(); ?>

 <p class="postmetadata"><?php
  comments_popup_link( 'No comments yet', '1 comment', '% comments', 'comments-link', 'Comments closed');
?></p>
</div>

<?php endwhile; 

else: ?>
<p>Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.</p>


<?php endif; ?>
</div>
</section>


<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

Now let’s assume that you have a category called “Design” with the category-slug “design” and you want to display this category differently than others.

To do that, you need to create a template for that particular category. Go to Appearance » Theme Editor. From the list of theme files on your right, click on category.php, if you do not have a category.php file there, then look for archive.php.

Theme category file editor

If you can’t find either of these templates, there is a good chance that you are using a WordPress Theme Framework and this tutorial may not be useful for you. We suggest that you refer to the specific framework you are using.

If you find the files above, then copy all the contents of category.php and paste them in a text editor like Notepad. Save this file as category-design.php.

Connect to your WordPress hosting using an FTP client and then go to /wp-content/themes/your-current-theme/ and upload your category-design.php file to your theme directory.

Now, any changes you make to this template will only appear in this particular category’s archive page.

Using this technique, you can create templates for as many categories as you want. Just use category-{category-slug}.php as the file name. You can find category slugs by visiting the categories section in the WordPress admin area.

Here is an example of a category-slug.php template. Notice that we have used the same template as category.php with few changes.

Since we already know the category it will be used for, we can add title, description, or any other details manually. Also notice that we have used <?php the_excerpt(); ?> instead of <?php the_content(); ?>.

Check out why we think using post summary or excerpt instead of full post is a good idea.

<?php
/**
* A Simple Category Template
*/

get_header(); ?> 

<section id="primary" class="site-content">
<div id="content" role="main">
<?php 
// Check if there are any posts to display
if ( have_posts() ) : ?>

<header class="archive-header">
<?php
// Since this template will only be used for Design category
// we can add category title and description manually.
// or even add images or change the layout
?>

<h1 class="archive-title">Design Articles</h1>
<div class="archive-meta">
Articles and tutorials about design and the web.
</div>
</header>

<?php

// The Loop
while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<small><?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?> by <?php the_author_posts_link() ?></small>

<div class="entry">
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>

 <p class="postmetadata"><?php
  comments_popup_link( 'No comments yet', '1 comment', '% comments', 'comments-link', 'Comments closed');
?></p>
</div>

<?php endwhile; // End Loop

else: ?>
<p>Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.</p>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
</section>

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

If you do not want to use the category-slug template, then you can use the category-id template to create a template for a specific category ID. Here’s how to find a category ID in WordPress.

Using Conditional Tags for a Category

When creating templates for your theme, you need to determine if you really need a separate template to do what you want to do.

In some cases, the changes you want to make are not too complicated and can be achieved using conditional tags inside a generic template, like category.php or even archive.php.

WordPress comes with support for many conditional tags that theme authors can use in their templates.

One such conditional tag is is_category(). Using this conditional tag, you can change your templates to display different output if the condition is matched.

For example, let’s suppose you have a category for featured posts called “Featured”.

Now you want to show some extra information on the category archive page for this particular category. To do that, add this code in category.php file right after <?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>.


<header class="archive-header">

<?php if(is_category( 'Featured' )) : ?>
	<h1 class="archive-title">Featured Articles:</h1>
<?php  else: ?>
	<h1 class="archive-title">Category Archive: <?php single_cat_title(); ?> </h1>
<?php endif; ?>

</header>

Create a Category Template Using Beaver Themer

Beaver Themer allows you to create layouts for your theme. You can select the individual categories where you want to use the template and then edit it using a drag and drop tool.

First, go to Beaver Builder » Themer Layouts » Add New page.

Add new category template

You’ll need to give it a title and then select your category under ‘Location’ option.

Edit Beaver Themer layout

From there, you’ll be able to use Beaver Builder’s drag and drop editor to customize your category layout page to your liking.

Using Beaver Builder to design your category template

Once you are done, click on the Done button and then select publish to apply your category template.

You can now visit your website to see the category template in action.

    I’m putting my question here because it’s the closest topic to what I am looking for. My church is going to put out a newsletter using Constant Contact. Our current newsletter has both short items and longer articles. I want to use short excerpts of the longer articles in the newsletter with a link to the article online. To that end, I have created a category-newsletter and using a plugin Unique Headers have changed the header image. I want now to suppress the H1 in the header, but since the header is called from the post page, the only way I can think of to obtain the result that I want is to do a custom page/post in which I don’t call header.php but include the contents of header.php in my custom post page. I might even want to do a custom footer.

    How do I do that without causing an error?

    This is a knowledgable tutorial for making templates – if you are an advanced user of code. This is what I see too much here- an explanation for the advanced users or developers but is of little to no value to beginners. I thought that this was WP BEGINNER – this is hardly a beginners tutorial and was of no help to me what-so-ever.

    Thank you so much for writing this article – I was trying so hard to find where the categories were stored for my personal blog site. I had been through every php I could find and searched relentlessly for categories in my FTP/ control panel. Although the advice given here basically said it couldn’t help and i wouldn’t find it useful, it did encourage me to look at the content.php which was in the ‘framework’ directory of the theme. If anyone else is using the free version of the plum theme and wants to know how to do this in ftp, I hope this comment is useful!

    My theme came without a template for categories, tags, etc. So this article is perfect since I want them.

    Question: Would it be best to do this in a child theme so custom changes are not lost if and when the theme is updated?

    For Custom Single Post page templates by category one could make a separated folder called “single” and then put inside all single templates like single-category-slug.php. + the general single.php. There was also necessary to add some code in functions.php. Can you do the same technique for Category page templates, like put all category-slug.php + the general category.php in a map called “category” ? I wonder that just to have a better file oragization istead of having all category-slug.php among all other theme php files like header.php footer.php index.php etc.

    When I use this template, I get the max set number of posts in the Dashboard, which is 10 posts only. When I select a category I want all of the posts for that category, not only the most recent 10. I tried adding query_posts(‘posts_per_page=50’); at the beginning of the Loop, but when I do that then posts from a different category are appearing in my selection. Any ideas?

I literally copied and pasted the code you have here (removing the line numbers), saved the file, and tested it out and I get a fully blank page.

    Hi,

    I am developing a child theme, and want to show a specific image alongside the category description — @ Category Archives page.

    ie, If category = Poetry, SHOW + description + post list
    if category = cooking, SHOW + description + post list
    if category = tutrial, SHOW + description + post list

    I know that we can put the IF-Condition in the category.php’s >> Archive header

    But, my list is pretty long — almost 20 categories
    and I donot want to clutter the actual category.php file

    Is it possible to write a custom function (in myfunc.php)
    and make a call at the category.php??

    Thank you

    This seems straightforward but I’m having problems. I’m creating a child theme from a parent theme. The parent theme has an archive.php file only. In my child folder I want the archive.php for my Archives widget and for my Category widget, I want a category.php file. I’ve copied the archive.php code into a blank php file and saved it as category.php. The archive.php still defaults for both. Am I missing something? Thank you.

      Nope you are not missing anything. category.php should take over when ever a user is browsing a category page. This could happen for a number of reasons. For example WordPress may not be able to identify category.php file. Can you open category.php file in Appearance » Editor. Double check that you have not accidentally saved category.php as category.php.txt. Also check out our guide on creating child themes to make sure that you have created a child theme correctly.

    Thanks for your great article. Very helpful.

    I have a custom post type – ”video”, and a custom taxonomy – “video_categories” What would be the best way display them? I need a “home” for all videos, and a page that lists videos from a category.

    archive-videos.php – “home” listing page for all videos of all categories
    taxonomy-video_categories.php – a category listing page

    This is what I am thinking about. I feel there should be a better way. At the moment these two files have exactly the same code which is duplication.

    Thanks in advance for sharing your experience

    I liked the Idea of creating different designs for each category page. Can you please tell me how can I achieve a particular design for post under one specific category?

    For eg. All the post under category “Design” will have a particular design format and background etc.

    I would be glad to have any link which can provide any hint related to this.
