    Marque,
    try this: http://wordpress.pastebin.ca/338534
    Hopefully, it will show your links... but only when on the home page. If you want them all the time - remove the conditional from around the code.

    Oh, thanks so much, Moshu...
    It's got it close....so close...but not close enough.
    Look at my Blogroll now, right beside it is a little "dot", a bullet. I want that gone...lol.

    Here is my sidebar.php coding as of now:

    Marque ... seems that when the page is served to the browser it puts a <li> around the <h2> tag (in your PHP code that is the line <h2><?php wp_list_bookmarks('category='); ?></h2>).

    You will need to get rid of the bullet point by using your CSS skills unless there is something else that can be done to the PHP coding (which I don't know much about).

    Hi,
    i still have a problem in my sidebar, i follow your explanations and changes '<?php wp_get_links(1); ?>' with '<?php wp_list_bookmarks(); ?>' then my list of links appear BUT now i can't remove the "Blogroll" text just below the "Blogroll" Jpeg.
    Any ideas ?

    Thanks

    Hi christianpoulot

    Again, as I am not too experienced with PHP you could always use a bit of CSS to remove the

    <h2>
    that is wrapping itself around that BLOGROLL text.

    No bullets, no title, just link name and description:

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

    These posts made me lost. I don't understand WP. I don't particularly want to understand WP. This is forcing me to try to understand WP. It's not going well at all with my headache.

    So... I have the same problem. Just tell me which file to edit? Or where to edit? Or... something? No one has said *where* to edit it, just *what* to edit. That doesn't help me with my lack of template knowledge (and my lack of want of template knowledge). Thanks.

    I hate to revive such a dead topic, but I just upgraded from 2.1 to 2.2 (yeah, I'm behind the times), and this problem showed up again. My sidebar displays this lovely messsage:

    WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1]
    SELECT cat_id, cat_name FROM

    I had somehow managed to fix it previously (or get someone else to fix it for me), but now I can't remember what on earth I (or someone else) did.

    If anyone could take a look at my sidebar file in the pastebin and tell me what exactly I need to do (not just that Template Tags need to be changed, but which tag, where, to what, and under which moon sign), I would really appreciate it.

    Thank you very much.

    I solved my problem by using Widgets to rebuild my sidebar. What a cool feature. :D
