use a list group for listing by category page [todo]

change this to a list group, should make it neater.

Page to update: https://kruxor.com/list-category/code/ 

so for some reason this is listed using this function

PHP

$list_wiki_menu = $class->list_wiki_menu();

not sure why i called it that, anyway...

here is the full function, it selects all the distinct categories and then lists all the items under each one. 

PHP

public function list_wiki_menu($mode = "widget", $start = 0, $max = 1000) {
    $out = "";
    $db_table_name = $this->db->escapeString($this->db_table_name);
    $start = $this->db->escapeString($start);
    $max = $this->db->escapeString($max);
    $db_table_name = $this->db->escapeString($this->db_table_name);
    $sql = "select distinct category from $db_table_name";
    $result =  $this->db->query($sql);
    if($result) {
        while($row = $result->fetchArray()) {
            $category = $row['category'];
            $sql_cat = "select * from $db_table_name where category = '$category' order by title asc limit $start,$max";
            $result_cat = $this->db->query($sql_cat);
            if($mode == "home") {
                $out .= "<div class='col-lg-12'>";
            }
            $out .= "<ul>$category";
            while($row_cat = $result_cat->fetchArray()) {
                $this->load_from_id($row_cat['id']);
                $nice_link = $this->generate_view_link();
                $title = $row_cat['title'];
                $out .= "<li><a href='$nice_link'>$title</a></li>";
            }
            $out .= "</ul>";
            if($mode == "home") {
                $out .= "</div>";
            }
        }
    }
    if($mode == "widget") {
        /*$out = "<h2><i class=\"far fa-file-alt\"></i> $this->nice_name</h2>$out";*/
    }
    if($mode == "home") {
        $out = "<div class='row'>$out</div>";
    }
    return $out;
}

Maybe a card style for each category with the list group inside it, something like this? i think this looks a bit neater.

In this case my anchor this week becomes driving almost 2hrs outside of Atlanta to one of my favorite hard core gyms in the world.. MetroFlex aka The Dungeon. The gym owners turn the heat way up so it becomes a fun sweat box and the gym members just watch from afar and leave me alone. I happily drive myself long distances to find MY ANCHOR. Our anchor allows us to have balance, focus and be as productive as possible. And if you're in the middle of a heavy set and your headphones start to fall off your head, like mine did here.. well.. f*ck the headphones. Let em break and fall. You can always get a new pair, but the iron ain't ever gonna lift itself.
