In WP 1.5 what you have there was a bug that made it difficult. I’d suggest to update AND to style your cat_list display by using
ul li
ul ul li etc. in the style sheet.
this is how I list my categories in the sidebar
<li id="categories"><h2><?php _e('categories:'); ?></h2>
<ul>
<?php wp_list_cats(); ?>
</ul>
</li>
then you have to see the stylesheet for configuring how “li” and “ul” should be styled.. such as “display: inline;”
Well, if you don’t all categories indented, only the subcategories, add this to your css:
ul.children { margin-left: 10px; }
But I think this was broken in 1.5, so to get it to work this way, you would have to upgrade to 1.5.1.2…
Thanks all.
I am a new user and started with the “Strayhorn” version.
Are there sub versions that I might need?
When I look at the wp-content/themes/mytemplate/sidebar.php (or the generated code) both the Main Category and it’s sub category are li items at the same level so I don’t see how to distinguish them with a css rule…

Since 1.5 they were all called “Strayhorn”.
If you have 1.5 – indenting won’t work. Update to the latest version which is 1.5.1.2.
