    Is there a way I can list the child category names not the posts – see below

    Parent Category A
    – Child Category A1
    – Post A1
    – Child Category A2

    What I would like to do is list Child Category A1 and A2 with links to the posts within each child category

    You cannot do this automatically with this plugin. You would have to write a separate shortcode for each child category, like this:

    [catlist name="Child Category A1" catname=yes]
[catlist name="Child Category A2" catname=yes]

    Hi, I’m also interested in displaying posts under categories in hierarchical order like described above, I was wondering if it is possible to automate this by creating a custom template instead of manually writing separate shortcodes? Thank you.

    Hi @hatisenang

    I have drafted a basic solution.

    If you need something more complex it shouldn’t be too difficult to expand the code if you are familiar with PHP.
