How to create categories in BlogSpot?

I've created a new blog at blogspot.com and I would like to archive my posts according to categories instead of their current settings to archive by month.

e.g. My blog is on burgers and I would like to create categories such as:
Beef Burgers
Chicken Burgers
Diet Burgers
Burger Recipes

Is this possible? Have anyone done this before?

 

There is no direct way to do this. Common blogger complaint.

You can change the archive time interval if that is of any help.

 

I would like to have that option to!

 

Thats funny you ask this. I'd like to do the same as well. I was going to start new blogs for each topic but that's just a PITA. I'd much rather post about all the topics on one blog and have them categorized. I think I may try and use my own blog engine on my site instead and stop using blogger so I can have more control over how my blog is organized and presented. You'd think Google would add this simple feature.

 

You'd think huh...

WordPress lets you use categories...

 

Yeah. I think I'm either going to find one to use or just develop my own.

 

As does MovableType, and virtually every other blogging software known to man

 

I'm using WordPress and I know that MovableType has that feature too...

But does blogspot have it?

 

I just mentioned WP because I prefer it

 

I have seen some blogs that show categories but dont now how they show categories in this style ?

Categories = [ link ]
Category 1 = [ http://myblog.blogspot.com/search/label/cat1 ]
Category 2 = [ http://myblog.blogspot.com/search/label/cat2 ]
Category 3 = [ http://myblog.blogspot.com/search/label/cat3 ]

Will anyone plz help to make and show categories in above style ?

 

Plz anyone give reply and help ?

 

I use the labels in Blogspot as categories though.

 

I've made widgets on some of my blogs, categorizing the various posts, but it's a very tiresome process! usually I make three or four posts and then edit the widget manually.

Much easier to do what Wiehanne says; just label each post with "diet burger" or "chicken burger" etc and then display the labels in a widget on your blog.

 

How make & show labels as categories in sidebar ?
Is there any way to get posts from my wordpress blog or joomla site categories and post them in blogspot label categories automatically, i mean auto post blogging from rss and xml ?

 

I found a site describing how to add pseudo categories to a blogspot blog and it works well

hi...
the following can be done :
a) Labels ...everyone often does this..
b) Create no of posts such that it must be equivalent to no of categories.
c) In the major page, just write the heading of your category and then make hyperlinks to respective categories..

I follow the latter one...

 

Thanks for replies.
