hi,
I want to make my WordPress blog very simple, I have cateories and sub categories, at the moment I have STAFF - STAFF HANDBOOK when you click on STAFF HANDBOOK in the STAFF category, you have a link to read the post, I want to be able to read the main post straight away when I click on the sub category name
is there a way?

When you go to edit your post you should see all of your categories listed in the lower right. Your categories and sub-categories should be listed there. Check all the ones that relate to your post.

yes, I have done that but when I click that it then shows a link to my post so I have to click twice before I can view my post!
your theme might be using only linked post titles in the template file that displays your posts when you click on the category link (archive.php, or category.php).
you may need to edit this file to include 'the_content();' to show the full post.

yes I have archive.php file but my code which contains the_content(); is inside the Page Template(page.php) I am using the tehme Plainscape 1.0.3 by Srini G
here is the code for page.php
[code]
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="content">
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<div class="entry">
<?php the_content('<p class="serif">Read the rest of this page »</p>'); ?>
<?php wp_link_pages(array('before' => '<p>Pages: ', 'after' => '</p>', 'next_or_number' => 'number')); ?>
</div>
<div class="postmetadata">
<?php if( function_exists('the_tags') )
the_tags(__('Tags: '), ', ', '
');
?>
<?php if('open' == $post->comment_status) { ?><?php _e('Comment') ?> (<?php comments_rss_link('RSS'); ?>)<?php } ?>
<?php if('open' == $post->ping_status) { ?> | " rel="trackback"><?php _e('Trackback') ?><?php } ?>
<?php edit_post_link(__('Edit'), ' | ', ''); ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php comments_template(); ?>
<?php endwhile; endif; ?>
</div>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
[/code]
what is the code of your archive.php?
there is a code button on top of this editor window - press that once before pasting your code, then again after.
for larger amounts of code, please use a http://wordpress.pastebin.com/
a link to your site might help as well.

my site is local only, sorry
in archive.php, find these lines:
<div class="entry">
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
</div>and replace 'the_excerpt();' with 'the_content('read more');':
<div class="entry">
<?php the_content('read more'); ?>
</div>hopefully, that should give you the full article when you click on the categorys.
