   This is the code that I'm using, <li><?php wp_dropdown_categories('show_option_none=Categories&hierarchical=true&orderby=name'); ?> </li>

   I am using this in a modular template that I'm pulling into some pages and categories templates. Would the post query make any difference on this template tag?

   And how do I get it to display the LINKS?

   Which links? Links to the categories? Here are the wp_dropdown_categories docs.

   Thank you - but I am using that function call. And it is displaying the names of the categories, but no links. I've no idea why.

   I mention that I'm using custom post queries just in case that may have something to do with it, but I doubt it. That function can be used w/i or w/o the loop.

   Still puzzled.

   wp_list_categories works differently by listing links for category pages. Is this for a main navigation menu?

   Found the fix in this old thread!! No idea why the template tag doesn't do this from the get-go!
