You see when you click on a category like art you see the items – well 1 item for now and then when you click on the 1 item you can read the whole story, but at the top is the title for another story in another category and all I would like at the top is a link back to the category home page. Hope that makes sense.

Do I simply need to change the code in one of the files I can manage as admin to change the link at the top of each full story to go back to category home page?
Anyhelp or pointers in the right direction?
Thanks,
Doug
Would I find the answer I need here?
http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/link_pages
To remove the links at the top of the single post item page?
In that theme you’ll need to open the single.php file in the theme folder (default) and edit (=delete or comment out) the code for the next/previous post.
For having a link to the category, check out the Template_Tags#Category_tags
Thanks Moshu – I commented that section out and it works exactly how I need it to. But now to add the link back to the category’s home page.
Can I use this?
<?php the_category(‘separator’, ‘single’ ); ?> and place it right after the part I commented out in the single.php?
Or should I look at the code for the sidebar and see how that link is created and add it to the single.php file?
Thanks again,
Doug
The code in the sidebar would give the list of categories and I don’t think that’s what you want.
Unfortunately you cannot spare some “home work”… At the link I gave above read about ALL the tags to see if you can find something useful.
Cool – I figured it out. I pasted this line:
<p>This post is in: <?php the_category(', '); ?></p>
under the commented out part in single.php and it works great.
Thanks again – this is resolved.
Doug
Glad to hear it worked as you wanted.
Next time if a topic of yours is resolved you can scroll up and change the “not resolved” to “resolved”. Thank you. (Now I did it for you:)
Thought I did that – but it said this is not the sound of one hand clapping?
I also notice on category homepage that the articles or posts are shown in full not summary – guess that is changed under the Admin menu – not to list full story unless title is clicked on?
Thnaks again –
Doug
Nope. You should open the archive.php file (not the archives.php!!!) and replace the_content tag with the_excerpt.
I’ll look at the archive.php file, glad I asked – thanks again!
Doug
