   Hi! I've installed Wordpress with the Pixel theme and it works like a dream. However, the menu shows categories in alphabetical order which doesn't suit me at all. Is there any way to work around this?

   Bonus question: my site is kind of content-heavy and not divided into that many pages. Needless to say, there is a bit of scrolling involved. I'd like there to be a scroll within the content area, so that the user always sees the menu. Tips and/or tricks for this?

   Best regards,
   Mattis

   See the orderby parameter.

   Internal scrollbars often cause more problems than they solve. Inserting "back to top" links every so often in your content should allow site visitors to jump quickly back to the top of the page, and hence, the site menu.

   Try looking in the template file for your menu (perhaps sidebar.php or header.php). Look for wp_list_categories().
