   I want to list my archives by date but have it display the post title instead of the date. I've searched all through the theme files and I can't figure out how to edit the Archives widget.

   I looked up the wp_get_archives() function, but I don't see an option to display by post-title.

   Thanks.

   Hi,

   No problem... You're right if you read this CODEX function reference : http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_get_archives

   I understand that you want to list posts post-by-post.

   Do that :
   

   <h3>Archives</h3>
   <div class="entry">
   <h3>Posts :</h3>
   <div style="margin-left: 30px;">
   <ul style="font-size: 15px;">
   <?php wp_get_archives('type=postbypost'); ?>
   </ul>
   </div>
   </div>

   This will displays your posts (ordered by post date) using the post title.

   Regards

   Sweet, thank you. Yes, I initially tried that but it took some more figuring because I was using a child theme with additionally registered sidebars, and I was missing this whole snippet: <?php wp_get_archives( array( 'type' => 'postbypost' ) ); ?> from my sidebar.php file. So, I has to write it in.

   Thank you for the confirmation. It worked!
