Archive Index

The Archive Index template is a simple listing of all the entries in the blog. Individual entry archives are listed first, followed by any date based and category archives. The default Archive Index lists the following (if the respective archive mappings are enabled)

• Individual entry archives
• Monthly archives
• Categories
• Author
• Category Monthly
• Author Monthly

Depending on what archives are enabled, the list can become quite long. The template is set to publish with the index templates.

This template includes the following modules:

• Header
• Footer
