Thanks wpbum for your quick reply!

Found the solution:

Hello, like others on this thread, I am looking to put a simple link in my header which will result in a page listing all Categories (and totals would be nice). I am quite surprised to find that this is not a standard WordPress feature and requires additional customization.

The standard category widget works great but I do not understand to how to make my own link. I appreciate very much that folks here (and on other threads) have linked to the documentation but the codex does not present a step-by-step solution for this case and assumes that the reader already knows what to do with the provided code snippets. I can cut & paste with the best of them but need to know where to do it.

Do i cut&paste:

<?php wp_list_categories(‘
‘show_option_all’ => ,
‘orderby’ => ‘name’,
‘order’ => ‘ASC’,
‘show_last_update’ => 0,
‘style’ => ‘list’,
‘show_count’ => 0,
‘hide_empty’ => 1,
‘use_desc_for_title’ => 1,
‘child_of’ => 0,
‘feed’ => ,
‘feed_image’ => ,
‘exclude’ => ,
‘current_category’ => 0,
‘hierarchical’ => true,
‘title_li’ => __(‘Categories’),
‘echo’ => 1,
‘depth’ => 0
); ?>

into my header.php somewhere? How do I link to this block of code? Thanks for any help!

Tried the upgrade process several times before giving up and fresh installing 2.7. Back up & going now but could not use the documented WordPress upgrade process to do it.

found it on the home page – very odd it is not on the forum pages.

I am having this exact problem every since my ISP forced me to upgrade to 2.6. I am in the middle of upgrading to 2.7 but am fearful now that this upgrade will also not allow me to get my admin. I am unable to approve comments, delete spam, add or do anything to my blog. Worked before on the old version.

TOTAL HYPERBOLE if you are proposing that millions of non-Unix admins have have shell sessions open or are using FTP clients, are messing around with MySQL database back-ups in database tools, archiving old file directories, swapping in some directories here and some files here and there to upgrade to the current WordPress version.

The rant is just a record to warn other unsuspecting souls about the perils of the “3 easy steps” upgrade.

I understand that WordPress works most of the time (although “millions of people who are non-Unix admins” is pure hyperbole.

Also, thanks for your kind words of support, it is really helpful and appreciated!

I no longer get the admin screen after a successful login, it is just sits on the login page. If I enter a wrong password, it gives me an error.

This is CRAP!!!!!!

gotten a little further and now, although I think I have successfully upgraded, the admin login window will not go away after a successful login – and this is using the password provided by the forgot you password process.

this crap is killing me! (sorry just venting….)

My admin is just a directory page now of all the files.

Only the title of a blog posting shows up and no content.

crap.
