## Description

This plugin builds on the Category Page plugin making it possible to automatically
insert posts into pages and subpages based on categories. You must have a current
version of [Category Page](https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/page2cat/) installed
in order to function.
 . Visit plugin page [here](http://categorypageextender.wordpress.com/)

### Usage

To view complete instructions [read here](http://categorypageextender.wordpress.com)

Open up page.php in your template folder (you may also set up a seperate a Page 
Template)

For the most basic setup, insert the following below the loop statement in the page.
php file:

    ```
    <?php if( function_exists(page2cat_pages)){ page2cat_pages($post->ID);} ?>
    ```

I recommend you wrap the function in your standard post class. For example:

    ```
    <div class="post">
    <?php if( function_exists(page2cat_pages)){ page2cat_pages($post->ID);} ?>
    </div>
    ```

Plugin Options

    ```
    <?php if( function_exists(page2cat_pages)){ page2cat_pages($post->ID, posts per page, number of pages);} ?><br /><br />
    ```

Posts per page: (default = 10) set to 0 to show all
 This sets the number of posts
to show at one time on the page.

Number of pages: (default = 15) set to 0 to show all
 This tells how many page numbers
to show at a time on the page navigation bar.

Example of Category Page Extender with variables:

    ```
    <?php if( function_exists(page2cat_pages)){ page2cat_pages($post->ID, 5, 10);} ?>
    ```

This will list 5 posts and up to 10 page numbers at a time on the page navigation
bar.
