I'm also curious about this. I want the catagories always to be seen, but on another page then the home.html template it won't load the catagories. How can I cange this?

I moved the category dropdown to the left side, which may give you what you need.  All I did was make my categories dropdown a jump box using a mod from this forum.  Then I just went into the templates and moved the {category_dropdown_form} from the bottom to side.  Works great.  If you want to see it in action, visit http://www.jenrichardsphotography.com

Then, if you want the category list off the page, just go into the templates and remove {categories_bit}.

For this kind of change I think you will have to manually change the html pages with your fave html editor.

Go into the templates directory and the files are in there.

I said it worked and it does, but it gives me a problem. If I put in in catagories.php so I can see the main catagories there it changes my catagorie title and description above the photo's to the last one in the list.

To make it work you have to make a new {categories}.

I think it is in functions.php. Just copy the whole function and rename it to {categorie2}. Then use this in the templates and the php-files.

I don't exactly reminder how I did it but here is my result (test-site)

This way in the left colum, it shows the categories one level higher than where you are located.

I will be offline for a few days so I can't answer your questions right away. Maybe I can give you some more details after the weekend.

I have been trying to find this mod but no success...
Can soemone point me in that way please?
Thanks
