Categories Archives List Showing on Sidebar

  • Hi, I’m new to WordPress. Our IT guy upgraded our WordPress website to 4.5 but had to restore the website to an older WordPress platform (3.8.13) because the site would not display. The site is backup now but I noticed the sidebar is not displaying as it was before. It’s showing all the subcategories and the archives in the sidebar on every blog post but it should only be displaying the subcategories relevant to that category. For example, Category A has 8 subcategories and Category B has 7 subcategories. I only want the relevant subcategories to display not all 15 subcategories and the archives. Can someone please direct us to the right place on how to get this fixed? Thanks!

  • For archives listing…
    go to Appearance > Widget
    Drag and Drop Archives in your widget,After archives show in your sidebar..
    For child catgegories,use plugin of

    ->just install them and activate your plugin after widget page show sub-category box like as a archives,so also drag and drop.
    ->Other way is just paste below code in your php file for child categories,
    <?php foreach (get_categories('child_of=8&hide_empty=0') as $cat) : echo $cat->cat_name; endforeach;?>
