Category Indents

    I’m using the “benevolence” theme. My catagories are all banked on the left. they’ve lost their outline features where sub-cats are indented.

    Is this a matter of CSS?

    The settings under “Options” are the same as v.1.2 – I had outlining in it.

    It’s not a CSS matter, if you look at the html source of the categories you will see that there is no differentiation between parents and children.

    I’m new to WordPress, but I’m gathering from this post I visited recently, that something changed between 1.2 and 1.5… it’s possible 1.2 threw a non-breaking space in to create child offset… or whatever, beats me. Anyway, if you feel bold enough to edit the theme, changing the categories to
    <li>sts should create the logical separation needed for you to control the appearance of the lists with css.

    Basically, in themes/benevolence/sidebar.php:
    <?php wp_list_cats("list=0"); ?>
    becomes:
    <?php wp_list_cats("list=1"); ?>

    visit my blog for the solution

    kahsoon, your solution is obsolete, since in WP1.5.1 simply using the <?php wp_list_cats(); ?> does the trick by default. (Yes, some CSS styling is required)

    lol im still using WP1.5 what…
