1 2 3 | <ul> <?php wp_get_archives('type=monthly'); ?> </ul> |
Replace with:
1 2 3 4 | <select name="archive-dropdown" onChange='document.location.href=this.options[this.selectedIndex].value;'> <option value=""><?php echo attribute_escape(__('Select Month')); ?></option> <?php wp_get_archives('type=monthly&format=option&show_post_count=1'); ?> </select> |
