   I am using WP 2.2.1 and want to customize the way all posts in the categories are shown.
   When pressing a category link I just want links to the posts to be shown.

   How is that done?

   Best regards
   Martin

   depending on your theme, you need to edit your archive.php or category.php file. look around in there for a snippet that says the_content or the_excerpt and delete it. it might look something like this
   <?php the_excerpt() ?>

   I am using Clean & mean (http://cavemonkey50.com/code/clean-and-mean/)
   It does not have a archive.php or category.php file.

   The file theloop.php seems to do it all.
   What part of the file should I edit?

   <?php if(!is_single()) { ?>
   		<?php if (is_category()) { ?><h1 class="title">Archive for the <?php echo single_cat_title(); ?> Category</h1>
   		<?php } elseif (is_day()) { ?><h1 class="title">Archive for <?php the_time('F jS, Y'); ?></h1>
   		<?php } elseif (is_month()) { ?><h1 class="title">Archive for <?php the_time('F Y'); ?></h1>
   		<?php } elseif (is_year()) { ?><h1 class="title">Archive for <?php the_time('Y'); ?></h1>
   		<?php } elseif (is_search()) { ?><h1 class="title">Search Results for "<?php echo wp_specialchars($s, 1); ?>"</h1>
   		<?php } elseif (function_exists('is_tag')) if(is_tag()) { ?><h1 class="title">Tag Archive for "<?php ob_start(); wp_title(''); $tag = ob_get_contents(); ob_end_clean(); echo trim($tag); ?>"</h1><?php } ?>
   	<?php } ?>
   
   	<?php while (have_posts()) { the_post(); ?>
   
   		<div id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" class="item <?php if ($first != 1) { echo "first"; $first = 1; } // Hack for the Titles ?>">
   			<div class="itemhead">
   				<h1><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title='Permanent Link to "<?php the_title(); ?>"'><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1>
   				<div class="headerlist">
   				<span class="metadata date"><?php the_time("D, M j, Y"); ?> at <?php the_time("g:i a"); ?></span>
   				<span class="metadata cats">Posted in <?php the_category(', '); ?></span>
   				<span class="metadata"><?php comments_popup_link('0 Comments', '1 Comment', '% Comments', 'commentslink', ''); ?></span>
   				<span class="metadata"><?php edit_post_link('edit','',''); ?></span>
   				</div>
   			</div>
   			<div class="itemtext">
   				<?php the_content("Continue Reading \"". the_title("","",false) ."\" &raquo;"); ?>
   			</div>
   			<!--
   			<?php trackback_rdf(); ?>
   			-->
   		</div>
   
   	<?php } ?>
   
   	<?php if ((function_exists('print_pg_navigation')) && (!is_home())) { print_pg_navigation('<div class="navigation"><p>','</p></div>'); } else { ?>
   		<?php if ( is_home() || is_search() || is_archive() || is_tag() ) { ?>
   			<div class="navigation">
   				<div class="alignleft"><p class="home"><?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Previous Entries') ?></p></div>
   				<div class="alignright"><p class="home"><?php previous_posts_link('Next Entries &raquo;') ?></p></div>
   			</div>
   		<?php } ?>
   	<?php } ?>
