Wordpress category view

How can I limit the category view in wordpress to just show the post titles and not anything of the post content?

Greeeeeen rep to good answers

 

Go here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugins/WordPress_Widgets

and search for category.

I promise you you will find what you want. The tag category widget is nice too.

 

in the archive.php file, you can change from 'content' to 'excerpt' which will show the excerpts under category view. if you want only title, then you can follow the link here

 

Thanks a lot sultanofseo. I found it.

In the theme index.php file, Replace this:

<div id="content">
<?php if ($posts) : foreach ($posts as $post) : start_wp(); ?>
<?php the_date('','<h2>','</h2>'); ?>
<div class="post">
<h3 class="storytitle" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h3>
<div class="meta"><?php _e("Filed under:"); ?> <?php the_category() ?> — <?php the_author() ?> @<?php the_time() ?>
</div>
<div class="storycontent">
<?php the_content(); ?>
</div>
<?php include(ABSPATH . 'wp-comments.php'); ?>
</div>
<?php endforeach; else: ?>
<p><?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.'); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>



With this:




<div id="contentcenter">
<?php

$temp_category = single_cat_title('',false);
if (!empty($temp_category)){
// give index
?>

<h1><?php single_cat_title(); ?></h1>

<p><?php echo(category_description(the_category_ID(false))); ?></p>
<p class="index">
<?php if ($posts) : foreach ($posts as $post) : start_wp(); ?>
<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a><br>
<?php endforeach; else: ?>
</p>
<p><?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.'); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>


<?php
}else{ // give details or single post
?>
<!-- if post give full detail.. otherwise if index give top x.. otherwise get all -->
<?php if ($posts) : foreach ($posts as $post) : start_wp(); ?>

<h1 id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1>

<div class="meta">posted on <?php the_date(); ?> at <?php the_time(); ?> in <?php the_category('','') ?> </div>

<?php the_content(); ?>

<div class="meta">
<?php wp_link_pages(); ?>
</div>

<!--
<?php trackback_rdf(); ?>
-->


<?php include(ABSPATH . 'wp-comments.php'); ?>

<?php endforeach; else: ?>
<p><?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.'); ?></p>
<?php endif;
} // end if index or detail
?>

</div>

 

great, thanks. i never thought of using just titles in my category view but looks lot clean if you do, i will give this a try myself

 

are you talking about a results page (such as, click a category, search the site or click a tag and see a list of sites afterwards?) Those are covered in the Archive & search pages of your template, all you'd have to do is remove the code that calls anything but the title, and only the titles would show up.
