[resolved] Category alias in pages ? (5 posts)

    Hi,

    I would like to know if a plugin exists to create alias to category on some pages.
    Let me explain.
    I would like this menu to be generated automaticaly by wp_list_pages :
    My company
    - about us
    - contact us
    - what's new

    "About us" and "contact us" are two static pages.
    but "what's new" may be a blog category displaying our latest works in articles.
    So the hack would be to create a page that is only an alias to the blog category in order for it to be displayed and nested in wp_list_pages
    Any clue ?
    Thanks

    Julien

    You can always add manually a list item at the beginning or at the end of the Pages list displayed by the tag above.
    There have been many examples in the forum for displaying a "home" link... so you just have to apply the idea to what you need.

    Hi moshu
    thanks for your answer.
    the thing is that there may be over pages under my example :
    My company
    - about us
    - contact us
    - what's new
    Our offer
    - ...
    that's why I need to nest the alias in the pages ... :)

    Aha. In that case I'd try to use the Redirectify plugin
    http://www.redalt.com/downloads/ from this site.
    Practically, you'd create a Page titled "what's new" and the plgin will redirect it to wherever you want > XYZ category archive, for example.
    (before you ask, the instructions for plugin:
