Thanks so much for this! It really got me back on the right track with a site that was feeling vaguely stubborn. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge in such a clear and articulate way, and judging by the comments, I’m not the only one :D

Is it possible to use the plugin to display the archives exactly as the default wp archives, only difference is the categories are filtered to only the category you require? I have got this plugin running thanks to your tutorial but it isnt quite what I’m looking for.

example of what I need…

Page Category1

(sidebar cat1)
Jan 2009 (links through to show all posts under category1 for Jan2009)
Feb 2009 (links through to show all posts under category1 for Feb2009)

Page Category2

(sidebar cat2)
Jan 2009 (links through to show all posts under category2 for Jan2009)
Feb 2009 (links through to show all posts under category2 for Feb2009)

At the moment without the plugin I cannnot filter by category, so the sidebar links display ALL posts.

With the plugin I can list by category/ date etc and link to a post but need to list by year /month and only display links for the selected category

Reading thsi back I’ts confusing so I hope you get what I’m trying to do

Thanks

Awesome – just what I needed. Thanks for sharing a simple code snippet instead of making a bloated plugin with 100 unneeded features!

Look for it soon at nudelrestaurant.com

@Kate – Hi Kate, thanks for your comments, I’m glad it worked for you. There are things that could be improved here, I’m glad when they are pointed out.

Nevermind! :) I keep messing it up! Plus I just saw Elpie’s comment from 30 October 2008, 22:16, which was in fact what I was suggesting too. Feel free to delete the extra comment(s). Take care. :)

Hmmm…. let me try that again:


if ($cat->category_description != NULL) {?>

 category_description ?>

Hi Gui,
First of all, thanks for the code! It was just what I was looking for. I’m thinking, though, (and I could be wrong)… but I believe the if statement may need to be fixed. Currently, as the code is, if there are no category descriptions it still outputs the paragraph. (Obviously not ideal. :) So, I changed it to this:

if ($cat->category_description != NULL) {?>
category_description ?>

Anyways, thanks again! Take care.

@IcedNyior –

hi there :) I hope you still reply to comments here.

Hi IcedNyiod, yes I do. I realised that there was a plugin causing conflict in this page and so it is likely that the code you copied doesn’t really make sense, if you can try now that it’s fixed, it should work. Let me know if the problem persists.
