I would like to keep my pages as clean as possible but at the same time I would like to provide access to categories, tags and the archive in some way. I was playing with idea to remove these from the sidebar and instead have this info on separate pages, that is one for categories, one for tags, one for the archive.
But I don't understand if and how I can do this (it might be obvious but not for me :) ). Is it possible?
WordPress automatically provides you access to those things.
If you change to the WordPress Default 1.6 theme, then when you click on a Category it will take you to a Category Archive, if you click on a tag (under each post) it will take you to an display of all posts with that tag.
And the same goes for the Archives by month.
Each of these can be placed in a sidebar by a Widget or can be coded with a Template Tag:
wp_list_categories()
the tags()
wp_tag_cloud()
wp_get_archives()

Sorry, I didn't express myself clear enough. I don't want a calendar, category list or tag cloud in the sidebar, instead I want to have a separate page where I list the categories (no postings displayed), one for the tags, etc.
However, when I wrote this I started to look at the page templates and discovered that what I was asking for already exists in the theme I'm using. Sorry, that I didn't think of this first.
