    hi, i'm trying to show the post categories as links on the home page rather than just having just the 'most recent post' link but, the code stuff is stumping me...i believe it's set up correctly with one parent and two children, could someone help?

    i need it spelt out as basic 101, step by step please ;) and thank you in advance!

    yes, i think that's exactly what i want esmi ty but, looking at that page is still way beyond my grasp (sorry).

    if you knew of a tutorial that went something like >look for this code '...' and replace it with this code '0000' or a plugin/widget then i'd be good to go, fingers crossed ;)

    What theme are you using? If you have a free theme I can tell you exactly where to put the wp_list_categories

    Where do you want the links to appear. If in the sidebar? look for the template file sidebar.php and put this in there:

    <ul>
    <?php
    wp_list_categories(); ?>
    </ul>

    Ok I see now u use the hot or not theme. Do you use the widgets for your sidebar? If so, there is a categories widget you can drag to the sidebar of your choice.

    Hmmm.. you can use widget i think.
    I use this plug-in for my blog.
    And it was good.
    Maybe you can try it
