Awesome! Thanks for your answers.

Hah, it seems to be a popular question, to which nobody posted the answer yet. I am looking for the same thing.

Same here…

Like I understand you have to manually enter:

<li <?php if(in_category(5) || is_category(5)){echo 'class="current-cat"';}?>>

for every category that you have, is that right?

But is there a way to do this automatically?

I mean, is there a way to edit ‘category-template.php’ file and do something with wp_list_categories function, that it would automatically generate list with the effect mentioned above?

Strangely that doesn’t work.

Now I have:
`<?php query_posts = (‘showposts=1&cat=-1&orderby=date&order=DESC’); ?>

I also tried &orderby=ID&order=DESC but still no luck.

It seems that whenever you enter “cat=-1” ordering functions do not work. :/

The strangest thing is that if I rewrite that query in a different way, like:

<?php query_posts = ('showposts=1&cat=2,3,4'); ?>

Which includes all categories except the one with ID=1, everything is fine… But still, it would suck manually entering all those numbers every time you create a new directory…
