    I’d like to list my categories like sub-pages with Home. How can I do that? The code for the menu is:

    <div id="navbar" class="clearfloat">
<ul id="page-bar" class="left clearfloat">
<li><a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/">Home</a></li>
<?php wp_list_pages('sort_column=menu_order&title_li='); ?>
</ul>

    Thanks in advance!

    Probably want to use the template tag, wp_list_categories().

    The theme, Amazing Grace uses both categories and pages for navigation.

    Yes, probably, but how to list the categories as a list below the ‘Home’-button?

    If I do this:
    <?php wp_list_categories('show_option_all=Home&title_li=&exclude=4'); ?>
    I get a menu item “Home” reffering to the home-page and I see the categories in the menu, but not “dropping down”.

    If I do this:
    <?php wp_list_categories('show_option_all=&title_li=Test&exclude=4'); ?>
    there’s an item called “Test” and if I mouse-over there, the categories drop down. Almost perfect, but the item “Test” has a different style then the other buttons (to pages and to the standard Home-link (from my previous post)).

    <?php wp_list_categories('show_option_all=Home&title_li=Test&exclude=4'); ?>
    is the same, including the “Home” button in the list.

    I think I only have to fix the style of “Test”, but how? And I prefer “Test” to have a link like “Home” to the home-page..

    How about wp_dropdown_categories()?

    No, I don’t mean such a drop-down menu. I’d like the categories to appear like pages (with subpages) in my menu.
    I’m using arthemia by the way.

    Maybe I should point you to this:
    How to easily display links to both Pages and Categories in the blog navigation header?

    Isn’t there an easier way?
    Here’s the page. Hover the mouse between “voorpagina” and “over” (the above side of the “invisible” space). I only have to have the style of the text of that block the same as the other buttons.

    …but don’t know how to do that exactly.
