    Hullo,

    I would like to insert a little text just above the list of links in my Blogroll. For example, “(showing a randomized subset of the complete list)” in between the caption “Cool blogs” and the first blog link on my right sidebar here. Is there a way to do it? I use WordPress version 2.2.1.

    Thanks.

    a) Upgrade to WordPress 2.2.3. 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 have security problems.

    b) Edit your sidebar code in the theme and add whatever you want to add just after <h2>Cool blogs</h2>.

    Yes, I need to upgrade, thanks for reminding.
    The problem with your point (b) is that I am using “<?php wp_list_bookmarks(‘orderby=rand&limit=20’); ?>” in my sidebar to access Blogroll. The header “Cool blogs” is changed via Manage->Categories->Edit on my Dashboard, so there is no “<h2>Cool blogs</h2>” in my sidebar.

    Thanks again.

    Ahh, I see. Okay, try this then:

    <?php wp_list_bookmarks("orderby=rand&limit=20&title_after=</h2>Here's some text I want to add!"); ?>

    Or, if you prefer, this is simpler to read (IMO):

    <?php wp_list_bookmarks(
array(
'orderby' =>'rand',
'limit'=>'20',
'title_after'=>"</h2>Here's some text I want to add!",
)); ?>
