The WordPress Category Archive Widget Plugin displays a monthly or yearly archive of posts for one specific category. It is very similar to the WordPress Archive except that it just displays one specific category’s posts, not all categories. It can be configured to either show a listing or a dropdown by month or year with or without post counts.

Smart Category Ordering is a plugin that allows you to sort your post content (per category). You can apply your sorting to a single category, or have your settings follow a category tree, covering the parent and children categories.
When sorting by “Smart Title”, that option is there to the leading ‘a’, ‘an’ or ‘the’ from a post title when sorting. This is the only difference between “Smart Title” and “Title.”

Allows you to alphabetize categories by post title, by trimming leading text, by post date.
