Show Proper Categories with nesting?

    I don’t understand why WP 1.5 lets you nest categories in parent categories, but then in the “categories” menu it displays them all inline, with no particular logic?

    Like if I make a category called “Pictures” and then a child category “Dogs” it should show this in the “categories” menu:

    Categories:
    ————–
    Category 1
    Category 2
    Category 3
    . . Category 3.1

    but instead it looks like this:
    Category 2
    Category 3.1
    Category 3
    Category 1

    you know what I mean?

    As for the original question in this thread (=nesting) download the revised template-functions-category.php from here and they will be nested!

    I had this problem on my blog, and the only fix I found was to have it show all empty categories. I came across this so late that I have hudnreds of empty ones, because I was heading in this other direction and now they’re all there. And arggggghhhhh…

    Nevermind that post. That was about another fix, probably on this thread. That file works like a charm! I just have to make sure that my main categories have one post in them, but it’s hard with things like: “By Features” (then protective feet) (handbag blog) I got it all done, though.
