wp_list_cats

Thank you for help..

I don’t think it’s in a template – though I may well be wrong – so where else can I find and change that variable?

<ul>
<?php
wp_list_categories('orderby=name&show_count=1&exclude=11, 12, 13, 14, 15'); ?>
</ul>

In the sidebar.php. It did nothing

Then did:

<div id="category"> <li class="sidebar-spacer"></li>
<li><h2><?php _e('Categories'); ?></h2>
<ul><?php list_cats(0, '', 'name', 'asc', '', 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0,'','','orderby=name&show_count=1&exclude=11, 12, 13, 14, 15','','') ?></ul>
</li>
</div>

In sidebar.php. Did nothing.

HELP?

How to change the indent on

and <il> tags?

www.jayem.se

from this version recurse has been deprecated, but i found it very usefull … please can be switched back ? i can rewrite the funcion so that it can be re-implemented, if i do so … to whom i have to send the file ?

list_cats did have the parameter list that could be set to true or false. wp_list_categories doesn’t seem to bother; the style parameter is still unexplained in the codex (TBA) and unlike the description of the parameter title_li suggests, the return seems to always be a good, old list.

I want no list!

Is this really unavoidable?

I’ve been struggling with the Category list – I’ve been looking at Fold Categories plugin, but as it’s based on wp_list_cats, I thought I’d better practise with that first! I’ve read up in the codex, and there’s a lot of posts here, but I don’t seem to be able to make it do what I want.

At the moment, some of my categories have sub-categories, and they’re sorted alphabetically regardless of heirachy. I’d like to have sub-cats show under their parent category.

The original code looks like this:
<?php wp_list_pages(); ?>
<li><?php _e('Categories'); ?>
<ul><?php list_cats(FALSE, ' ', 'name') ?>
</ul>

I started by replacing list_cats with wp_list_cats, as I find boolean easier than string, with this line:
<?php wp_list_cats('sort_column=id&optioncount=1'); ?>

but at the moment the count goes to another line, so I set that to 0 for now (I assume I need to correct the CSS when I’ve sorted this out). Using wp_list_cats with the defaults seems to give me a random order, rather than heirachical or alpha.

TIA

list_cats(false, ”, ‘name’, ‘asc’, ”, false, false, true, true, true, true, 8, 0, false, ”, ”, ”, false);

But I got all categories. It seems the parameter child_of doesn’t work.

I also tried using ‘child_of=8’, failed either.

Anyone can help? Thanks a lot.

wp_list_cats(‘child_of=#’)

and inject the current category into # so I do not have to create a million category pages?

I basically have a static left menu but then wanted to show the subcategories for the category page that I am currently on

CATEGORY 1
— subcategory1
— subcategory2
— subcategory3

CATEGORY 2
— subcategory4
— subcategory5
— subcategory6

I want to limit the number of categories in each list to 8.

Does this require a plugin or a hack?

If possible, it would be nice to have the 8 category links be sorted by name, most popular, or most recent.
