I would like to create two lists of links to the categories

    hey, I had a similar problem, only I didn't want all the catagories to show up, so I used 3 widgets, each displaying one category of links. One for the first group named as I wanted, one for the second group, named as I wanted, and finally, the third group, named as I wanted.

    just one suggestion...

      Thanks for your reply
      how do you edit the category widget to not show all categories
      I only have 3 options-
      Show as dropdown
      Show post counts
      Show hierarchy

    To be able to create two lists of links to the categories
    put half of the categories in left sidebar
    other half in right sidebar you need to change your column in your wordpress theme setting, In there you can customize, or choose what design you want to your site.
