Okay, I've got a blog with many entries going back to 2001 or so, but we only want five entries a page, and the list of months down the side only goes back a year or so. I really don't like the calendar, is the any other way of making the old entries accessible?
Some sort of button to just go back five entries, ad infinitum, seems the best solution to me, but I wouldn't know how to make such a thing.
Adding the following code to your _main.php will add a link to your archive directory, which lists every month (or week or day, depending on your settings) you have posts in. It's usually in most skins, so I don't know if that's what you're looking for.
