Thats ok ?? pherhaps someone else will see it as well. All help or attempts to are very appreciated! My first thought was also that it would be as simple as adding a page, but alass it needs a post to show up in my theme, I think you are right about that!
Maybe some code will give anyone looking the right idea. This is the headercode that produces the menu, I think. It is on the home.php and header.php page! Maybe the ‘categories to exclude’ has something to do with it. The first part is the logo (i guess), and then something about the printcatslist (unknown to me):
<?php
// Category Sort options
global $categories_sort;
if(get_settings('Shade_sortcategories')!='')
{
$categories_sort = 'sort_column='. get_settings('Shade_sortcategories');
}
// Exclude Categories options
global $categories_to_exclude;
if(get_settings('Shade_excludecategories')!='')
{
$categories_to_exclude = 'exclude='. get_settings('Shade_excludecategories');
}
?>
<?php wp_head(); ?>
</head>
<body>
<div id="header">
<div class="header">
<a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/"><img src="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/wp-content/themes/Shade/img/logo.gif" alt="Logo" /></a>
<ul>
<?php
require_once( 'wp-content/plugins/printcatslist.php' );
KFPrintCategories( $categories_to_exclude, false );
?>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
And in the printcatslist.php it says:
<?php
/*

function KFPrintCategories( $categories_to_exclude ) {
// Check args
if (empty( $categories_to_exclude )) {
$arg_string = 'orderby=name';
}
else {
$arg_string = 'orderby=name&exclude=' . $categories_to_exclude;
}
// Get the category list
$categories = get_categories( $arg_string );
// Get the current category
global $wp_query;
$current_category = $wp_query->get_queried_object_id();
echo "<li".(is_home() ? " class=\"active\"" : "")."><a href=\"".get_bloginfo('siteurl')."\"><span>Home</span></a></li>";
// Echo the output
foreach ($categories as $cat) {
echo " <li class=\"";
if (is_home()) {
// Do Nothing
}
elseif ((! empty( $current_category )) && ($current_category == $cat->term_id)) {
echo ' active';
}
elseif ( in_category( $cat->term_id ) ) {
echo ' active';
}
echo "\">
<a title=\"View all posts filed under {$cat->name}\" href=\"" . get_category_link( $cat->term_id ) . "\"><span>{$cat->name}</span></a>
</li>";
}
// Done.. phew!
}
?>
Hopefully this could point someone in the right direction!
