The second type of overview page – lists


Compared to the Category Blog layout, the Category List layout provides a more basic view of category contents. Instead of a series of intros and links, the visitor is shown only a number of links to categories and/or articles.

How do you make such a list page? The steps are basically the same as the ones involved in creating the Category Blog menu links. Navigate to Menus | Main Menu | Add New Menu Item and select Category List as Menu Item Type. Provide the necessary details (select a target category and type a link title) and you're done. In this section, we'll find out in more detail how this works and how you can customize the default List layout.
