That was the real turning point for me as hadn’t noticed it on the api.

The only extra thing that would be a very nice addition is the adding of the first letter of the categories as a way of making the lists more readable. So, the adding of A, B, D etc above the categories with those starting letters. Could this be added to your code?

Sorry, i’m very new to this. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

// Grab the categories – top level only (depth=1)
$get_cats = wp_list_pages(‘title_li=&child_of=’.$post->ID.’&echo=0′);
// Split into array items

ID.’&echo=0′);
// Split into array items

See my modified code below:

ID.’&echo=0′);
// Split into array items
$cat_array = explode(”,$get_cats);
// Amount of categories (count of items in array)
$results_total = count($cat_array);
// How many categories to show per list (round up total divided by 3)
$cats_per_list = ceil($results_total / 3);
// Counter number for tagging onto each list
$list_number = 1;
// Set the category result counter to zero
$result_number = 0;
?>

<ul class="subcats" id="cat-col-”>

<?php
foreach($cat_array as $category) {
$result_number++;

if($result_number % $cats_per_list == 0) {
$list_number++;
echo $category.'

‘;

}

else {

echo $category.”;

}

} ?>

<?php
$cats = explode("”,wp_list_categories(‘title_li=&echo=0&depth=1&style=none’));
$cat_n = count($cats) – 1;
for ($i=0;$i<$cat_n;$i++):
if ($i<$cat_n/2):
$cat_left = $cat_left.'’.$cats[$i].”;
elseif ($i>=$cat_n/2):
$cat_right = $cat_right.”.$cats[$i].”;
endif;
endfor;
?>

Much easier to see what’s happening in this script.
What you’re thinking?

Any chance to exclude some categories?

In line 3 for $get_cats you should be able to use all parameters available for wp_list_categories, also exclude.

Great work and thanks for your answer

Arghh!

This is the basic modification I’ve been trying to use:

<?php
// Grab the categories – top level only (depth=1)
$get_cats = wp_get_archives( 'type=daily' );
// Split into array items
$cat_array = explode('’,$get_cats);
// Amount of categories (count of items in array)
$results_total = count($cat_array);
// How many categories to show per list (round up total divided by 5)
$cats_per_list = ceil($results_total / 5);
// Counter number for tagging onto each list
$list_number = 1;
// Set the category result counter to zero
$result_number = 0;
?>

<ul class="category_footer_post" id="cat-col-”>

<?php
foreach($cat_array as $category) {
$result_number++;

if($result_number % $cats_per_list == 0) {
$list_number++;
echo $category.'

‘;

}

else {

echo $category.”;

}

} ?>

Any ideas?

Can you help?

<?php
// Grab the categories – top level only (depth=1)
$get_pages = wp_list_pages( 'echo=0&title_li=&depth=1' );
// Split into array items
$page_array = explode('’,$get_pages);
// Amount of categories (count of items in array)
$results_total = count($page_array);
// How many categories to show per list (round up total divided by 5)
$pages_per_list = ceil($results_total / 3);
// Counter number for tagging onto each list
$list_number = 1;
// Set the category result counter to zero
$result_number = 0;
?>

<ul class="page_footer_post" id="page-col-”>

<?php
foreach($page_array as $pages) {
$result_number++;

if($result_number % $pages_per_list == 0) {
$list_number++;
echo $page.'

‘;

}

else {

echo $page.”;

}

} ?>
