[solved] News Module - placing category list in sidebar

[SusanN]

Hello,

I am using the News module to create this "blog" on this site:  vir gini afr eyerm uth.com/cms/blog (please remove the spaces).  My client would like the list of categories she's using to appear in the sidebar under the main site navigation.  This is my first time using this module, so I'm unsure of how to do this exactly.  I hope my question makes sense. 

Thanks for any ideas.

Susan, you'll use something like this:

Code: Select all

{news category="General*"}

where * will show General and all sub-categories of General as links.

Thank you so much.  I tried the code you posted, but it put the actual post into the sidebar.  So, upon further investigation, I discovered that this is actually what I was looking for:

Code: Select all

{news browsecat="1"}

I wouldn't have figured that out without your post, though, so thank you!
