This plugin hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress.

Archives by Category and Date

Description

Archives are categorized under category name and date. It filters archives based on the category and clicked date when they are being displayed in archives page. Archives page will only show posts from the clicked date and also the posts that belong to that category. So, all in all there will be two filters while viewing archives page.

Sorry, but this doesn’t work – there was no admin menu item, so now way of actually selecting the categories you want to display in the archives – shame, because this was what I needed
