Generating a simple, clean archive page
-
Hi there,
I was wondering if there’s a way to generate such a clean and simple archive page that it would consist merely of a list of direct links to the posts (with a little metadata aside, like categories)?

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

Have you looked at this?
http://en.support.wordpress.com/archives-shortcode/(though you would have to add categories manually)

Okay, thanks 1tess.
Does anyone know how to add a “posted in [category]” -element after the links?

Hi Topi,
You would have to add the categories yourself to the archives page.
One sort of mindless/easy way would be to get yourself a test blog (private) and export your real blog to it. Choose a theme which lists titles of posts on category pages:
http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2009/03/25/full-posts-in-archive-pages/
View the source code, and copy the list of titles (one cat at a time) then paste the html into a page for that cat on your real blog.You’ll have an archive of posts by category on that page.
You’ll have to update the list each time you make a post.
There is no automatic way to do it.
