I tried changing the code as shown below. It’s still outputting correctly on every page but the homepage, where it’s still not pulling any posts. So confused…
<?php
$the_query = new WP_Query('cat=7&showposts=10&orderby=date&order=asc');
while ($the_query->have_posts()) : $the_query->the_post(); $do_not_duplicate = $post->ID;
?>
