 * Hi;
 * Right now if I click on a category in my sidebar, the latest post in that category
   is recalled in the center of the blog.
 * Instead, I would like a list of posts in that category to be recalled. If the
   user clicks on one of those links the list will be replaced with that post, with
   a navigation link back to the list.
 * My questions are:
 * 1. What function do I use and where do I call it to get
    a category link to pull
   up a list of messages in that category?
 * 2. How can I modify the navigation links to go back to
    his list?
 * Thanks for any information
 * Steve

 * That generally is defined by the theme [Template_Hierarchy](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Hierarchy)
   outlines the hierarchy the category view (as others). Check your theme to see
   if you have a category.php or archive.php. If not, you will need to create one
   that outputs the way you want.
 * [Templates](http://codex.wordpress.org/Templates) and [Template_Tags](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags)
   will be good sources for that process.
