WordPress doesn't show all posts

Question

Is there a reason why WP only shows a list of 10 posts? I'm using this code $latestPosts = new WP_Query('cat=5'); to get a list of all posts that I have. I thought this should work, compared to this code: $latestPosts = new WP_Query('cat=5&posts_per_page=3'); with a limit of 3 posts.

I have 19 posts, but in the list I only get 10. Is there some kind of pagination by default that I have to handle in the code?

Answer 1

Change the posts_per_page value to -1
