Description

TwoColCats is a simple WordPress Plugin.

It provides a WordPress Widget that displays the list of categories in
two or more columns in your sidebar. Use it instead of the built-in categories
widget.

It displays only the level-1 categories.

Thanks for your interest!

Really? A widget for two-column category display?

Yes. Really.

I looked for something like this and didn’t find it.
Baffling. So I built one.

Seriously? There isn’t one of these already?

I don’t think so.

Will it work with XXXX theme?

I don’t know. You’ll just have to try it out. It works with the themes
I tried.

How did you get to be so awesome?

Some say I was born this awesome, but it’s not true. It’s something I’ve
worked at all my life.
