## Description

Do you have a lot of categories and are sick of having a huge list in your sidebar?
Want to highlight only a few of them to make your site easier to navigate?

While redesigning WordPress sites for our clients we kept running into this problem
over and over. They had a huge list of legacy categories but only wanted to highlight
a few of them. We wrote this plugin to allow them to select which categories to 
show and which categories to initially hide.

All categories are still accessible by a “see all” link at the bottom of the list.

Add the widget to your sidebar to make it live.

## Installation

Upload the Category Expander plugin to your blog, Activate it, update your settings
and add the widget to your sidebar.
