   Would someone be able to help me out with some coding advice, at the moment I retrieve my categories with the following code:

   <h2><?php _e('Categories'); ?></h2>
   <?php list_cats(0, '', 'name', 'asc', '', 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0,'','','','','') ?>
   <?php /* If this is the frontpage */ if ( is_home() || is_page() ) { ?>
   <?php get_links_list(); }?>

   This displays all my categories in one list but since I have some sub-categories and I would like these to be shown as sub-categories in my sidebar.

   How do I go about this?

   Many thanks in advance.

   You could replace the template tag used in your sidebar with something else, and/or play with the parameters:
   http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags#Category_tags

   (BTW, only this line of code is displaying your cats:
   <?php list_cats(0, '', 'name', 'asc', '', 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0,'','','','','') ?> - everything after that is for Links/Blogs)

   From that codex entry I think the parameter I want is

   <?php list_cats()>

   hierarchical
   (boolean) Sets whether to display child (sub) Categories in a hierarchical (after parent) list. Valid values:

   * TRUE (Default)
   * FALSE

   How do I go about implementing this?

   I have tried a couple of things but so far nothing has worked.

   Any help would be really appreciated.
