Update: I have tried many many examples of manually adding a rewrite rule, changing existing rewrite rules, and other options with no success yet.

Thanks for the super fast reply! That answered my questions perfectly. The comment token method is a great idea as well ??

I have been getting so many requests for this, that I am going to put an article up on my site that explains how I did it. I should have it up by tonight – https://www.dagondesign.com

Which one are you trying to install?

I also recommend Witty.. I played with several a while back and it was by far the best, and very simple to use. I don’t know why some scripts overcomplicate things so much when all they do is stick a random sentence somewhere ??

Just installed the one from arnebrachhold.de. It is working great ??

I had this happen to me earlier today. I have a fairly new WP install, and it only has 1 custom category, which contains 3 posts.

I also have 3 static pages. And for some reason the admin panel said that ‘uncategorized’ had 3 posts (when it should of had none).

I logged into my cpanel to run phpMyAdmin to check out the database manually, and sure enough, in the table “wp_post2cat” which keeps track of which posts are in which categories. It was showing 3 posts in cat 1, which is ‘uncategorized’. Thoses posts were for my static pages. So for whatever reason my static pages showed up under ‘uncategorized’ in the sql, but the WP panel was not displaying them.. only the number.

Anyway, the moral of this story is that if you can get into your database, you can easily manually delete these ‘incorrect’ entries ??

I just got it working ?? I ended up using ‘Nicer Archives’, cutting out about 90% of the code that I did not want (for the drop-down boxes, etc..), since I wanted something simple. The end result is a fully automatic sitemap. I even found a website which explains how to fix a permalink bug in the original code.

(There are still not that many articles on the site since I am moving them over but you get the idea – I did test with some extra dummy cats too and it looked good)

Unless I create a new category, and forget to update the sitemap code ??

I know, it is not a huge deal. I will figure something out ??

I know what you mean, and I may have to fall back on that method if nothing else, but I was trying to _not_ have to manually duplicate that code for each category. I was trying to find a way for it to automatically go through all the categories and run the code itself ??

Sorry for the confusion ?? I would have posted an example, but I have not seen a single site do what I want ??

This is a static page I just put up: https://www.dagondesign.com/sitemap/

This is my goal. A page that will show all posts sorted by category. ??

With the category names linking to the cat pages, and the post names linking to the posts of course.

With the code you gave me, I can automatically generate a list of the posts for one specific category. My main problem now is just having it automatically go through all the categories, to generate this list. Know what I mean?

get_posts works great for the loop. I have that part down.

What I can’t find is a function to stick all the categories in an array, letting me go through them each. Pulling out the entries in each one.
