Okay assuming you have that plugin installed and activated, then visit Appearances->Widgets and drag the PHP Code Widget to the appropriate sidebar then put that code in the widget.

OK! I understand! Sorry that I overcomplicated things in my mind.
So now IT’S WORKING!
One small tweak I would like to make:
With PHP Code Widget, I can write a “title.” In this case, I am titling it “Categories.”
However, in your code you have the following line:
$wlc_param_list=’orderby=name&show_count=1&title_li=Categories on first post&include=’ . $cats;
Can I remove the “Categories on first post” somehow? That way, each page will simply show “Categories” (the title I have given the PHP Code Widget).
How would I alter the code you have given me to accomplish this?
THANK YOU MICHAELH! I really appreciate your help!
$wlc_param_list='orderby=name&show_count=1&title_li=&include=' . $cats;

Michael, that’s brilliant – I can’t thank you enough.
One more tweak, sorry to be such a bother:
As it stands now, the number of times each category appears shows up in parentheses, for example:
Burritos (3)
Is there a way to eliminate the number and the parentheses around it, so that it is simply “Burritos?”
Thank you again.
See if you can find the answer in the wp_list_categories() article.
Hint: it involves the show_count argument.

OK! I figured it out! Michael, you are the man!
P.S. – Do you think we should clean up this thread a little, maybe remove some of the unnecessary posts where I pasted in all the code? Also, Otto’s email address is on here, don’t want him getting a bunch of spam emails as a result. I leave it up to you – thanks again for helping me!
