Separate Archives for different categories (4 posts)

    I have 2 categories - News and Blog - each is a separate section, from which the other should not be accessible other than through the main navigation.

    I want to create an archive page for each category, which only shows posts from that category. This is no problem.

    But what if I want to have an archive index page for each category, which shows the year links, and then when you click on a year, it shows the archive only for that year and that category. Is this possible?

    Thanks
    Dan

    Thanks esmi, but unless I'm missing something, that doesn't explain how to keep the categories separate, i.e. once I click on a year, it will show the archive for that year and ALL categories, whereas I want to show only one category.

    You could try using something like query_posts($query_string . '&category_name=Foobar'); in the template to limit the list to just one category.
