    <p>This has really been driving me mad for a while now, so I'm hoping someone can help. I'm trying to use <code>wp_get_archives()</code> to display a list of links to yearly archives <em>that show posts within the current category</em>.</p> <p>Importantly, I'm trying to do this <strong>without</strong> a plugin and just use the functions file or even a <code>WP_Query</code> loop.</p> <p><strong>Example</strong></p> <p>Imagine I have the following categories all filled with posts:</p> <p>Exhibitions (parent)<br> --Current (child)<br> --Past (child)</p> <p>Artworks (parent)<br> --Recent (child)<br> --Featured (child)<br> --Old (child)</p> <p>What I'm trying to do is essentially this:</p> <pre><code>/* Get current Cat ID */ function getCurrentCatID() { global $wp_query; if(is_category() || is_single()){ $cat_ID = get_query_var('cat'); } return $cat_ID; } $currentCat = getCurrentCatID(); wp_get_archives('type=yearly&amp;cat=$currentCat'); // But, you can't filter this by category it seems </code></pre> <p>So, if I view the 'Exhibitions' category (which uses category.php), <code>wp_get_archives()</code> would show links for 2012, 2011, 2010 etc.</p> <p>When I click 2011, I would see posts that are in the category 'Exhibitions' AND it's child categories (also important).</p> <p>I've found this post which might hold the answer: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2789228/exclude-category-from-wp-get-archives">Exclude Category From wp_get_archives?</a></p> <p>But I don't know how I would use the current category being viewed within filters mentioned in the post nor how I would add multiple categories to it (i.e. the parent category plus it's children).</p> <p>Any help massively appreciated.</p> <p>Osu</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
