Hey ganzua,
I was trying to do the same thing as you, too. Here’s what I’ve figured out. Instead of doing ‘year=1234’ do “year=$year”
Before that, add this:
<?php
$year = (int)strip_tags(stripslashes($_GET['y']));
?>
To get the archives of a specific year, add ?y=2000 to the url of the page you created. The default, when no y value is defined, is to show posts from all years. You can make it so it shows the current year, etc.
Hope that helps.
Thu
