   Is it possible to customize the archive.php file so that the word "(A-Z)" appears at the end of the category archive text string (#top .superheading)? My category posts are sorted alphabetically with a plugin that I'm using and I was hoping to make a small text label indicating that.

   The format of the category archive text string that I would like to setup:
   Archive For Salt Water Taffy Recipes (A-Z)

   Example page where the category archive label appears:
   http://tinyurl.com/5vuwzhy

   I played around with the archive.php code by couldn't get it formatted correctly.

   $output = "";
   $useTemplate ="";
   if (is_category()) {
   $output = __('Archive For ','habitat').single_cat_title('',false);
   } elseif (is_day()) {
   $output = __('Archive For ','habitat').get_the_time('F jS, Y');
   } elseif (is_month()){
   $output = __('Archive For ','habitat').get_the_time('F, Y');
   } elseif (is_year()) {
   $output = __('Archive For ','habitat').get_the_time('Y');
   } elseif (is_search()) {
   $output = __('Search Results','habitat');
   } elseif (is_author()) {
   $output = __('Author Archive','habitat');
   } elseif (isset($_GET['paged']) && !empty($_GET['paged'])) {
   $output = __('Blog Archives','habitat');
   } elseif(is_tax()){
   $term = get_term_by( 'slug', get_query_var( 'term' ), get_query_var( 'taxonomy' ) );
   $output = __('Archive For ','habitat').$term->name;
   $useTemplate = $term->slug;

   Hey,
   in archive.php replace following line:
   

   if($output != "") $output = '<h2 class="superheading">'.$output.'</h2>';

   with:
   

   $pos = strpos($output,"Archive");
   
   if(($pos === false) || (is_day() || is_month() || is_year())) {
      if($output != "") {$output = '<h2 class="superheading">'.$output.'</h2>';};
   }
   else {
    if($output != "") {$output = '<h2 class="superheading">'.$output.' (A-Z)</h2>';};
   }

   Thanks Dude, it worked great.

   Would it be possible to exclude the dated Archives from this "(A-Z)" change? For example to keep the text change to the category archives but to remove it from the following dated archive sections below:

   April 2011 (3)
   February 2011 (11)
   January 2011 (13)
