Hi, I see how to add note categories but not how to remove them.

Is there no function for it? Thanks

[beasleybub]

I looked into the files and saw no reference to delete note categories. This would be nice to have. My knowledge of PHP and MYSQL are limited but I might be able to add this functionality myself by cloning the delete note function in the note.php file.

If someone else wants to tackle this before me then please by all means go for it. I really think it would be helpful.

If I successfully do it I'll post back here.

In my quest to dissect the notes.php file and add a category delete function I noticed a bug that needed to be addressed.

Scenario: You go into note categories section to insert a new category. Once you get there fore some reason you change your mind and click the cancel button just to discover that it was created anyway.

Around line 447 you will see...

//echo zen_draw_hidden_field('notes_id', $note->fields['notes_id']) . zen_image_submit('button_update.gif', IMAGE_UPDATE) . ' <a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_NOTES, 'page=' . $_GET['page'] . '&nID=' . $_GET['nID']) . '">' . zen_image_button('button_cancel.gif', IMAGE_CANCEL) . '</a>';

Change this line to...

//echo zen_draw_hidden_field('notes_id', $note->fields['notes_id']) . zen_image_submit('button_update.gif', IMAGE_UPDATE) . ' <a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_NOTES, 'action=categories') . '">' . zen_image_button('button_cancel.gif', IMAGE_CANCEL) . '</a>';

This should cancel the action and return you to the categories menu.

Only just installed this mod (including the recent update)
I have one question: If I wish to add a note to say catagories (or anything) it opens a new page instance where I would prefer a redraw in the same window.

Is this the norm? Olease see attached screen shot:

Sorry for the delayed reply.

Search the files for:

target="_blank"

and remove it.
