[archives] should allow more visual archive pages

  • Unknown's avatar

    The only good thing I saw in Tumblr that is superior to WordPress is the archive page. As you can see on the following link http://andersbateva.tumblr.com/archive , the archive page is divided in monthly sections with previews of each post.

    On the other hand, on WordPress, my archive page linked here https://andersbateva.wordpress.com/arquivo/ , it’s only a plain list of post titles. When I configure it to list by months, it instead of creating simple ‘h2’ sections with the correspondent plain list of post titles (what would satisfy me), it makes the archive page become a list of month names, without the posts titles.

    I ask that more options of personalization of archive pages come in a future WordPress update. This that I wanted isn’t much difficult to achieve. It would be OK if existed an option of beginning and finnishing of the interval of the archive tag. This way, I would be able, for example, to create yearly sections in my archive page by putting the number of the year (2013) as ‘h2’, and between this header on the top, and the next header (2012) below it, i would insert an ‘archives’ tag with the attribute ‘start=01/01/2013’ and ‘end=31/12/2013′ (or ’12/31/2013’, since WordPress is located in USA), so in this section would exist a plain list of post titles, but only of the correspondent year.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
