What is the best way to modify the category directory listing or recreate something like the listing? I can't find an extension or settings that might serve this purpose. Example: sdexcellence.org/Category:Inductees

This, that and the other (talkcontribs)

Looking at Category:Category extensions, there don't seem to be many extensions for modifying the category view. If you're a PHP coder, you can do it by hooking ArticleFromTitle and superficially subclassing CategoryPage to point to your new CategoryViewer subclass (see Extension:CategoryTree for a working example).

I eventually found an, CategoryTree, that gave me a list of pages without the category name, without the text prior to the listing, without the alpha categorization.
