    I would like to collect some documents in categories. But i do not like how WP show them. Does exist a plugin or a better way to create categories and collect documents showing only the titles, and not the entire document appended to other documents?

    Sorry for my english.

  • Well, my friend, you should edit the theme you are going to use. Any change you make – it happens only in one theme. Otherwise you have to edit all the themes you are using.

    Once again: there is NO “categories.php” template – only in singular: category.php.
    If you make a category template – delete what is in the index and copy over the code from the other theme .

    Sorry i do not understand 🙁

    OK, I’ll try a simple explanation.
    If you edit one theme – the changes will be only in that one. If you use 17 themes – you have to edit all the 17 themes.

    Do in Ocadia what you did in the other theme. Make a category.php file by saving the archive.php as catgeory.php and copy the code which works in the other theme into that file.
    Which part don’t you understand?

    Look to my categories:
    http://www.v*rsionitradott*.it/?cat=1
    http://www.v*rsionitradott*.it/?cat=2

    I removed the_time, the_category and comments_popup_link tags.
    But as you can see there is too space between titles.
    Do you know a way to fix this problem?
    Thank you.

    * = e

    1. Why do I have to suffer with all those ** gizmos? 🙁 I hate when somebody wants help but they make it difficult to get to their site. Next time I will not go to your site if there is not a normal link.

    2. I know how to fix it, but if I start to explain it, we will sit in front of the computer 12 hours 🙂

    3. Paste the code of the category template to http://pastebin.com and post back with the URL.

    Sorry for the gizmos but i used * because i do not want that google index these pages with the name of my site. Sorry.

    I pasted the code of categories.php here:
    http://pastebin.com/624209

    Thank you for your help.

    OK.
    Try to use this one http://pastebin.com/624216
    But before you have to do this:
    Open the stylesheet (style.css) and add this code:
    .listing {
    margin: 0;
    }

    That should work.

    Look at those categories links i posted before.

    Did you seen that little image on the left of the site? A gray rectangle.

    Do you know why is it there?

    No, I don’t know. Sorry.

    Ok, thank you anyway for your help.
    See you.

    Make this:

    <div id="content">
    <div id="content" class="narrowcolumn">

    like

    <div id="content">
    <div class="narrowcolumn">

    Thread Starter smartmouse

    (@smartmouse)

    In category.php i file i have only this code:

    <div id=”content” class=”narrowcolumn”>

    I edited it to:

    <div class=”narrowcolumn”>

    It’s ok now!

    Clicking on a category in the categories menu how to list subcategories?
    Now it list only posts… how to make it to show posts and subcategories in the same page?
