   Hi everybody!

   Regarding wp_get_archives function, would it be possible to show the year and then all post titles of that year in reversed order?

   2006

   * post 12 title
   * post 11 title
   * post 10 title
   * post 9 title
   * post 8 title
   * post 7 title
   ...

   2005

   * post 12 title
   * post 11 title
   * post 10 title
   * post 9 title
   * post 8 title
   * post 7 title

   This isn't exactly what you're asking for, but it's sure close... Have a look at this plugin: http://www.sonsofskadi.net/extended-live-archive/

   Thanks, HandySolo;

   It is very kind of you, I'll check the plugin. I was writing a template; I presume for your answer that it is not possible to produce such a list with wordpress functions.

   That would be an incorrect presumption. But I don't believe you'd accomplish it with wp_get_archives.

   Have you read up on The_Loop? You can do a lot with it and query_posts, but sometimes it's ok to not reinvent another wheel and check out all the archive plugins that already exist. :-)

   Thanks again HandySolo;

   The_Loop and query_posts are a good clue, I'm not sure I'll be able of handling all that php but I'll give a try ;-)

   I just wanted to give a quick access to all my blog entries with wp_get_archives('type=postbypost') . I'd like to establish a yearly division or cut because I have 40-50 for last year.

   Ok;

   I've found a workaround but it is not smart at all;

   I can display all post of a particular year with query_posts('year=2006') and then the loop, but I have to repeat the same code for each year I want to display;

   query_posts('year=2005') and then the loop

   query_posts('year=2004') and then the loop

   ...

   for 2007 I'll have to insert more code;

   query_posts('year=2007') and then the loop

   is it very stupid? :-)

   Hey ganzua,

   I was trying to do the same thing as you, too. Here's what I've figured out. Instead of doing 'year=1234' do "year=$year"

   Before that, add this:
   

   <?php
   	$year = (int)strip_tags(stripslashes($_GET['y']));
   ?>

   To get the archives of a specific year, add ?y=2000 to the url of the page you created. The default, when no y value is defined, is to show posts from all years. You can make it so it shows the current year, etc.

   Hope that helps.
