Hi there,

I created a navigational menu like this:

* Health ( Category)
* Personal Care ( Sub Category 1)
** Men's Grooming (Sub Sub Category 1)
** Hair and Beauty (Sub Sub Category 2)

But I'd like to customize the way the posts are shown on Sub Category pages so that they are organized into multiple Sub Sub Categories.

Here's an example of what I'm Looking for.

When a user navigates using the Menu Item to the 'Personal Care' Sub Category Page, I'd like for the posts to be sectioned under the respective Sub Sub Categories. For instance, in this case, the posts would be categorized under the two Sub Sub Categories Men's Grooming, and Hair and Beauty.

Please tell me 2 things

1) How to pull off the aforementioned view?
2) How to add a hyperlink as shown in the image?

Your help is highly appreciated.

Many thanks,
Ram

Hi there,

I'm not quite sure what you are trying to achieve.

Any examples you can show me or what you currently have?

Hi Leo,

This is the Category Structure in use in my website.

{Level 1} Health (Category)
{Level 2} ->Personal Care (Sub Category)
{Level 3} -> Men's Grooming (Sub Sub Category)
-> Hair and Beauty (Sub Sub Category)

I want my Sub Category page to display posts grouped by the Sub Sub categories they belong to.

Here is an example.

As shown in the image, the Sub Category page should list the Sub Sub Category name (Men's Grooming, Hair and Beauty), with each Sub Sub category followed by a group of post titles belonging to it.

Hope this clarifies.

Thanks,
Ram

In other words, I would like to have a parent category, with its subcategory titles listed.

Under each subcategory title I want the content related to that specific subcategory.

Still a bit confused. So that will be a static page that you will build?

If so I would recommend checking out Tom's WP Show Posts with Sections:

Let me know if this helps or not :)
