I have MySQL 5. Should I not even bother attempting to use this addon?

Password protect doesn't work, either, and I need to implement SOME form of protection for a particular category...

Previous posts already answer questions regarding PHP5 compatibility..

Well, sure, I'm aware the topic has been brought up.

Good news, though. I successfully installed the module on a site running php5 without making any modifications! A customer pointed out that they can still see the hidden category by going to my generic 404 page, however. Not a huge problem, just something to take note of for any future updates (should there be one)

Not to be the detail police, but it was more than brought up.. it discussed in great detail along with the solution I implemented, along with the likely cause of the issue.. Glad it worked out for you though..

Is this in regard to the question I asked about mySQL 5 , you said PHP5?

Also if you read through this support thread, there are posts which cover how to edit the hidden products and catagories out of these pages..

Hello,

Can someone please help me merge the hidecategories and the tpl_categories (from BetterCategories) module.

Thank you

I'm using categories tabs and this mod doesn't hide categories from it. Is there any way to make this mod hide categories in categories tabs?
It works perfectly for everything else and I find it a great mod! Now if only I could make it work in my categories tabs...
Please help.
