DescriptionEdit

Manually maintain a list of all the posts in a given category by editing a special blog post each time you want to add or categorise a new post. There are multiple versions of this hack, and this manual method of categorisation is a straightforward but time-consuming process.

MethodEdit

1. Create a special blog post for each category, perhaps dated in the distant past before you really started blogging.
2. Edit that post and manually add a link to the new post that you want to categorise.
3. Add a link to all the special category posts in your sidebar.
