A useful piece of script for changing the look or appearance of your archives. For me this was found by accident. I was looking for help on this via the wordpress site, but as always – Codex was using big words and terms refering to script. I like to keep things simple, moreso late at night. So without going on too much, here is the code
<ul><?php wp_get_archives(‘type=yearly’); ?></ul></li>
Somewhere on your Sidebar or Sidebar2, 3 or whatever you are using, the code will look similar to this:
<ul><?php wp_get_archives(‘type=monthly’); ?></ul></li>
Changing the Monthly to Yearly obviously will change the look of your archives. Now It works on My blog and my current theme, so try it and see with whatever version/theme you are using. I am no expert on this, so no silly questions.
