[resolved] Need way to list & select posts alphabetically under each Category (3 posts)

    I am using WP 2.7. I am not a programmer. I converted a poetry website I created for my elderly father into a WP Blog. Unfortunately, for me "No good deed goes unpunished". The site is: http://www.poundridgepoet.com.

    My father and some of his friends, don't like the fact that the blog has no way (in the right hand column) to alphabetically list all of the poems under each Category heading listed in the "Category" section.

    Basically, he want's to click on a Catagory heading and see an alphabetical list of poems. From the alphabetically list, he want's to be able to click on a poem and be brought to the post containing the selected poem.

    I have been looking at plugins/widgets for WP 2.7, but I can't seem to find what I need (if it exists); and more importantly, a plugin that is easy to install without doing any programming or modifications to get the plugin to work.

    Thanks for any help.

    Thanks to design_dolphin for the help links.

    But, after I posted, I found a plugin that pretty much does what I need called "AZIndex Ver. 0.6.2". It creates a new page with an index of all the posts listed alphabetically. While not exactly what I was asking for in my post, it works well after one slight modification to the code so that it would work in WP 2.7.The modification is noted on the author's web page ( http://englishmike.net/azindex-plugin/ ) under a 12/12/08 comment:

    Just a little update on a better fix;
    1) open az-index-admin.php in an editor (could be in the WordPress Plugin Editor even)
    2) Locate the following line;
    define(’AZ_PAGENAME’, ‘edit.php?page=az-index-manager’);
    3) Change it to;
    define(’AZ_PAGENAME’, ‘tools.php?page=az-index-manager’);
