Question

Hi all I am newbie to wordpress I am using the wp_list_categories in the sidebar to display the categories . How can i display thus categories sort by id any one much appreciated...

<?php wp_list_categories('exclude=73');?>

Answer 1

wp_list_categories takes an orderby parameter which accepts :

• ID - Default
• name
• slug
• count
• term_group

So the default behavior of wp-list-categories is to order by ID but you can specify that like so:

<?php wp_list_categories(array('exclude'=> 73,'orderby' => 'ID'));?>
