    Bloggin novie, just started in the least couple days so please bear with me…

    I would like to make the links in the sidebar into a tree format sorted by Category.

    Basically I want to have a link category that was my name, and have all the links associated with that category (my name) displayed below it, and if I created a category for my wife and all her links would appear below her name (category) and so on.

    Something like this:
    JIM
    – Myspace Profile
    – Photo Album
    – Resume

    WIFE
    – Myspace Profile
    – Scrapbooking
    – etc.

    Is there a plugin or some code that could make this work?

    I’m using the desert theme template at:

    Thanks and I appreciate any help!!!

  • Somewhere in your sidebar.php you will have the code to display the categories. I have:
    <?php list_cats(1, ‘all’, ‘name’, ‘asc’, ”, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0,0,”,”,”,”,1) ?>
    This allows children categories to be displayed under their parent category. Please check out the codex to learn what all the arguments mean.

    I seem to be running into a dead end, mayb4e I’m not finding the right part of the codex. Anyone know of the specific link that may help me or any other alternatives.

    Thanks for bearing with a newbie.

    ok, I found a way to do it, but now the text is very small and a diiferent color than all the rest.

    I just opened index.php and looked for get_links. Changed that to get_links_list but now my sext is very small and unreadable.

    This is how the code looks now ‘<h2><?php _e(‘Our Links’);?></h2>
    <ul id=is_link>
    <?php get_links_list(); ?>
    ‘
