I guess this isn’t an issue for most people but if anyone needs the code I ended up getting this to work:
<?php list_cats(FALSE, ”, ‘ID’,
‘asc’, ”, TRUE, FALSE,
FALSE, FALSE, TRUE,
FALSE, FALSE, ”, FALSE,
”, ”, ‘1,33’,
TRUE); ?>
I just whacked it somewhere in the sidebar.php file and it worked. Still can’t get my categories to link to my pages though.
Alright I notice that posts can be linked to categories by ticking the box but does anyone know if pages can be linked to categories through the admin panel or is there another way? Any help is appreciated.
I don’t really know if this will help you, but try and check out the Post2Page plugin. I think its listed in the codex list of plugins. It makes pages of your posts, so if you want to do something to a page that you can do with a post, it might be worth a shot. Good luck 🙂
It doesn’t seem to be what I need but thanks for throwing it my way anyway! As things stand I’m not sure that there is an easy option to categorize pages so I’ll skip it for now.
How about making your pages children of parent category pages?
Like:
Category Page
>Page 1
>Page 2
>Page 3
Second Category
>Page 1
>Page 2
>Page 3
You can exclude children pages where you want to list the categories, and exclude the parents when you want to list all pages, and yet again list ‘children of’ if you want to list the pages in a certain category.
The downside to this is of course you can’t put a page in several categories.
I am not sure if it is what you are looking for, but on my site, I use the “Fold Category” and “Fold Page” plugins. For example, on Aleeya.net if you goto the ABOUT page, on the left it lists the sub pages. If you click on Kudos (Pages) it hides the about sub pages and expands the Kudos Pages.
Using the Fold Categories, it does the same… clicking on Word Press on the left expands the sub categories.. and I am using a similar plugin for the archives of 2003,2004 etc
