    Hello:

    I'm having a problem with listing category names by their nested parent-child hierarchy using the Cutline-3-column-split-1.1 theme.

    Presently, the category list in my left sidecolumn is sorting alphabetically by all the category names rather than by the nested parent-child hierarchy I had set up using the Dashboard>Manage>Categories editor.

    After activating the Cutline theme on a fresh WP install, I entered some sample categories and set up some categories as children of a parent category. At first, the nested parent-child category hierarchy displayed just fine in the right sidecolumn where the theme displays the category list "out of the box".

    Then I used the Widget editor to move the CATEGORIES 1 widget from the right sidecolumn to the left sidecolumn. After I did that, WP/Cutline started ignoring the nested parent-child hierarchy for categories. I've tried moving the CATEGORIES 1 widget back to the right sidecolumn, but WP/Cutline continues to ignore the nested parent-child hierarchy for categories.

    The nested parent-child hierarchy for my PAGES widget works just fine in both left and right sidecolumns.

    What gives? Any fixes? Thanks in advance for any help here.

    Nevermind! Problem solved.

    I just noticed the little square next to the Categories 1 widget and discovered that if I click on it a Widget Options window opens and allows me to set the Display Hierarchy option... which then solves my problem described above.

    Gosh darn it! This WordPress thing is just TOO easy!

    Can you post a graph on how to do it, because I am having a hard time too figuring out the nested parent-child heirarchy. Currently, I am looking for blogs about interior design in singapore since I am planning to build a house there.
