  There are several posts in a category. Can these posts be indexed so that the title of the post appears in the category? Then the reader can go right to the post he wants to read instead of scrolling through the category for the post he wants?

  Hi, thanks for getting in touch with us. Are you referring to how the full content of posts shows on your archive pages like this one?

  If so, the best way to make content easier to scan on those pages using your current theme would be to use the More tag to split content. This lets you split posts so that only a summary appears. This would make categories with multiple posts much easier to scan.

  Another option would be to switch to a theme like Twenty Ten that only displays excerpts of posts on archive pages. Hope that helps get you pointed in the right direction.
