Newspaper Archives

Harvey
I would like to be able to have newspaper archives display in a "tree" fashion (like blogger) so that  the length of the archive doesn't become too long.

You mean that one with years, months and the posts for each month, right?

It should be a simple tree with two levels: years and months. We can show the number of months inside parentesis like we do right now. Only the current year would be expanded by default. Here is a simple example:

2011
   January (13)
   February (7)
   March (20)
   April (9)
2010
2009
2008

Harvey, please confirm.

Maybe current month also, right?

No. Months are leaf nodes, so they don't expand.

He mentioned the blogger one. The blogger one expands the months to show the recent posts.

The blogger one works well.



Also the one outlined by Hugo above would be just as good for our purposes.

The main thing I  am trying to avoid is one post a month for four years and then the archive is 48 lines long.

When the year is over, the whole year takes up only one line.

Yeah, sure it will be collapsed. :-)
Since you have many posts on the same month I think it should be displayed as Hugo proposed.

Re: Newspaper Archives

Archive looks great guys thanks:



Anyway to change the color of the YEAR (2011 etc) from black to another color in CSS?

Actually since archives are no longer exactly Monthly, can we change the header to just "Archives?"

Re: Newspaper Archives

div.year {
    color: blue;
}

This is how you can change the color.

You are right about the title. I'm going to change it soon.
