    Hello,

    I want to show the pages in categories.. so that if we click them it goes to the page...


    It means...

    If the categories are Google, Microsoft, Yahoo then

    it must also list Contact Me, About Me with it...

    Thanks!

    If you mean in your menu, use the custom menu function in Appearance->Menus. You can place categories as menu items.

    That theme doesnt support Menus... if we use custom menu it appears on the sidebar rather than on the navigation...

    Then if you want it in with the rest of the navigation, you need to code it in by hand. Probably in the header.php file.

    Stop saying "convert categories to pages" or you will get the wrong information. Based on what you said, that is NOT what you want. Categories already have pages and naturally display a page of posts.

    What you want is to make categories menu items in the navigation.
    And as i said, you will have to hack your navigation and place them in by hand and link them to where you want them to go.

    Go and manage with the menus. Or otherwise change the theme!

    Like I said, if your theme doesn't support custom menus, then you need to hack your header.php file and tell it what to do. Sounds like you are saying you want to show certain pages and certain categories.
    You will need to add something like this as your navigation for your categories: ( this may not be 100% accurate)
    To do a combination of both certain pages and certain categories, you might try something like this:
    You can get a better understanding of what you need to do here:
