Noob question

If you make a new page template with the following included, this will show all the links in categories – with the name of each category as a title.

<ul><?php get_links_list('name'); ?> </ul>

Thanks JamesICT,

That points me in the right direction. Now I just need to learn to make a new page template. I assume I can copy one of my theme’s templates and modify it. How does WP know to include it in the Templates drop-down? when I create a new page?

Remember I’m not real fluent in WP. Is there a better way to go about this?

you’re getting it! the file can be named almostanything.php and you put a name-for-it in a comment near the start of the file

the instructions + examples are here

Thanks Dgold,

Exactly what I needed to know. I probably would have found the right article eventually, but sometimes after you read and read and read it gets overwhelming. Thanks for the pointer!
