The primary task of this plugin is deduce on the main page (or any another) the structured list of categories, which can be easily customized with CSS, how it's made now on Articlesss.com web-site. In addition, with the plugin implemented several changes in the administrative interface that using it was more rational and convenient for both authors and for the administrator.

Standard optional features for categories list:

• Amount of articles in parent and child categories.
• Category description in link title.
• Show the empty categories.
• Use hierarchy for subcategories.
• Exclude selected categories.

Special features:

• Simple and handy design using CSS. The structure of categories is the multilevel list which can be altered easily with CSS, as you need. The parent category have the <div> container to mark it out with CSS as a parent.

• Ability to hide unnecessary blocks from the "Write/Edit Post" page, if this is not the site administrator. It is "Comments & Pings", "Excerpt", "Password Protect" and other blocks. I.e. actually there is only a form of adding the article and the button to send it to moderation.
• Ability to specify the height of the categories block on "Write/Edit Post" page.
• Ability to put the "Terms of article publication" on "Write/Edit Post" page.
