Hi all,
Sorry I didn't know where to place this topic, because could resolve around a number of matters, but it comes down to a wordpress help I need, maybe we should create a wordpress, or any other CMS forum? this would be handy.
Anyway back on topic, I want an archives page to look similar to this:
http://veerle.duoh.com/blog/archives/
Yes, I am aware that this isn't used for wordpress, but I still want this affect, so I have install a plugin and created my archives page, but I don't know where in the
PHP I can edit to change it to add a little javascript to get a similar affect. It doesn't have to be complicated, just with a basic tab system would do. Below is my code that I have so far, and I will attach a screenshot of the page so far, so could someone please advise where? and how to add this affect?
- PHP: Select all
