   Hello,

   I'm using the below wp_list_bookmarks() function to display my links

   <?php wp_list_bookmarks('title_li=&categorize=0&category=2&show_description=1'); ?>

   The current format is:
   LINK_NAME1 Description1
   LINK_NAME2 Description2
   etc..

   I would like to display the link as:
   LINK_NAME1 - Description1
   LINK_NAME2 - Description2
   etc..

   Does anyone know how I can modify the wp_list_bookmarks() function to display the ' - '? I don't want to add ' - ' to the description.

   Thanks.

   look at the usage of 'between'.

   whoomai thank you very much for pointing me in the right direction! Strange function. I'm new to php and I kept thinking that the text would need to be enclosed in quotes or something.

   Thanks again.

   Well, you can also do it this way if it makes more sense to you:
   

   <?php
   wp_list_bookmarks(array(
   'title_li'=>'',
   'categorize'=>0,
   'category'=>2,
   'show_description'=>1,
   'between'=>' - ',
   ));
   ?>

   That's the way I prefer to do this sort of thing, since it makes it very obvious what is assigned to what.

   The code definitely looks cleaner and much easier to read. Thanks for the tip.
