I even downgraded to 2.8.1 and im still having the problem. It’s making me want to shoot myself in the face.

EDIT: I upgraded back to 2.9.2 and everything was still nice and broken. So I went into my dashboard to my general settings and changed the day of the week my calendar was set to begin on. I changed it from Monday to Sunday. This fixed the problem. I even changed it back to Sunday and it was still fixed.

Hope that helps someone.

I’m having the same problem. This really needs to be fixed. =/

I’ve installed the Smarter NAvigation plugin and it is working GREAT if the referrer page is a Date archive.

However, if the referrer page is the Category archive (or search) it doesn’t work at all, and I have no idea why.

This is my site (still in development):

Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Jonathan,

Thanks for the help ?? I think you may be onto something!

It looks like the code at the very bottom of that page (the one that “Tests if any of a post’s assigned categories are descendants of target categories”) may do exactly what I need it to do. The only trouble is, I’m not sure what to do with that function ??

I get that it returns a value of true or false, but I’ll admit that I don’t know enough about programming to know how to make it display those children on return of “true”. Does that make sense?

Like, once the function determines, “aha! This post IS assigned a category that is a descendant of the Places category!”, how do I get it to display that child category and link to it?

To be clearer, for example, I have a parent category called “Places” and then I might have children called “Alberta” and “San Francisco”.

I have another parent named “Events” which might have the children categories “pizza night” and “sleepover”.

So I need to display the children categories that apply to the current post in their respective locations in the sidebar.
