Hi all,
posting a blog entry and adding a category (no tags) to it works fine. The post ends up in the blog, and the category count in the sidebar gets updated. All is well!
I see two issues with the category link attached to the post itself.
Example: http://klickerklacker.wordpress.com/2008/03/31/termine-april-2008/
(in German, but should be obvious)
The interesting line is at the bottom: "Kategorien : Organisation", i.e. "Categories: Organisation".
First issue: the link of "Organisation" points to a ".../tags/..." link. Shouldn't this point to something like ".../categories/..."?
Second issue: the link points outside of the blog! That is very counter-intuitive to the readers of the blog, who don't expect to be linked to some confusing and non-connected content of other people (at least the readers I know of, me included :-) )
To resolve: shouldn't the link of "Organisation", instead of pointing to http://de.wordpress.com/tag/organisation/ be pointing to http://klickerklacker.wordpress.com/category/organisation/, hence staying within the blog, and be consistent with the standard sidebar widget?
This behaviour appears consistently across themes.
Can someone please elaborate, on why tags and categories are mixed below posts, and not implemented consistently to the sidebar, and consistent to the readers' (...) expectations? And how I can change that?
Thanks for the great blogging platform!
