I have copied the folliwng code into my widget

<ul><?php if(is_home()) : ?>
<?php wp_list_categories('style=list&hide_empty=1&title_li='); ?>
<?php else : ?>
<?php if(function_exists('add_link_attr')) { ?>
<?php add_link_attr('wp_list_categories', 'style=list&hide_empty=1&title_li=', 'rel="nofollow"', ''); ?>
<?php } else { ?>
<?php wp_list_categories('style=list&hide_empty=1&title_li='); } ?>
<?php endif; ?>
</ul>

The categories now display on the left sidebar but clicking on them throws a 404 error page (which by the way is really neat as it also shows a site map..........very cool!)

Have I messed up the code somehow please?

Any ideas gratefully acted upon!

Mint Tree..there is something odd here and it is nothing to do with the template you are quite right BUT if you were to have any idea how I might fix it I'd be grateful.

I have my permalink set up as /%category%/%postname%/

I have updated that and all says it is saved OK.

However, when I hover the mouse over one of the category links and look down in the bottom right hand corner to see what the url is it says http://murmurz.com/category/murmurz/

Now I cannot for the life of me see why the word 'category' is appearing there?? Surely it should be the domain name/category name?

I have cut and pasted the permalink in case I have done something wrong there...........

Would you have any idea how I might fix that??

Sorry!

Fixed. Thank you so much.

There was an advanced tab under permalinks which I had not noticed before. The fields were blank but they also said that the default when left blank was /category/%category%/  

Anyway I input /%category%/ into the advanced field and it is now fixed.

I've never come across that before and really appreciate your help in sorting it out as I appreciate it was nothing to do with the template!!
