There’s a great post on how to get WordPress to use your own template and override the default template.<\/p>\n

The basic code looks like this;<\/p>\n

function my_template() {
\nif (is_category() && get_query_var(‘cat’) == get_cat_id(‘fun’)) {
\ninclude (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘\/category-fun.php’);
\nexit;
\n}
\n}<\/p>\n

add_action(‘template_redirect’, ‘my_template’);<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Be sure to use\u00a0STYLESHEETPATH instead of his\u00a0TEMPLATEPATH so that child themes respond to the code properly.<\/p>\n
