  My WP.com blog “JosephDarnell.com” (also known as josephdarnell.wordpress.com) has a main nav of the pages I’ve create at the top just below my header image. I also use categories for posts.

  I would like the main nav to be the categories and provide links to the pages in a widget on the side column. Is there a way to make categories the top nav? Maybe a work around? Any help would be appreciated.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  There is a workaround, but it is not supported by all themes:

  Page tabs as extra links

  iNove has that feature, I think.

  Thanks for the help! I use the theme Vigilance, which according to the link you gave, works fine with this work around.

  Um, Husdal, the workaround let’s categories appear in the top navigation. How do I hide pages from the top navigation I want listed in a widget in the side column?
