 * Hello,
 * I have a quick question about WordPress navigation. In the default sidebar, WordPress
   sets up the following navigation:
 * Pages (Title)
    – page one – page two
 * Categories (Title)
    – category one – category two
 * Is it possible to set up two page sections in the left-hand nav?
 * For example:
    Pages (What’s New) – page one – page two
 * Pages (Newsroom)
    – page three – page four
 * Categories (some sort of title)
    – category one – category two
 * I tried setting up a multiple page widget but I can’t figure out how to assign
   page three to “Newsroom” and not “What’s new”.
    Basically, all my pages ended
   up in “What’s New” and “Newsroom.”
 * If you can steer me in the right direction, I would appreciate it.
    Thank you.

 * Consider downloading and installing [Otto’s php code widget](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/php-code-widget/).
 * Then use multiple instances of the widget and use the [template tag](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags),
   [wp_list_pages()](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_list_pages). and
   [wp_list_categories()](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_list_categories).
 * Examples:
    `<?php wp_list_pages('include=1,2&title_li=<h2>What is New</h2>' );?
   >`
 * and
 * `<?php wp_list_categories('include=12,15&show_count=1&title_li=<h2>Category Set
   1</h2>'); ?>`
