  Hi,
  I have categories that have a name like this xxxx_nn (don’t ask why… too complicated to explain :) )
  I understand that wp_list_cats is the command that show the categories in the sidebar.

  Anyway – I want to either:
  1. Show in the sidebar the description of the category and not the name
  2. If this is not possible, how do I hack the wp_list_cats command to show only part of the name of a category (just the part befor the “_”)?

  Thanks in advance!
  Ohad
