Winchester Responsive

Anne

please can you assist - I have installed the "hide categories" plugin but I don't know how to get the top "Categories" menu on Winchester Responsive not to show the hidden categories. Can you tell me what code I need to change/insert and where, please?

Thanks

Cliff

I can not give you any specifics because I have not used that plugin. The top categories menu uses the ul generator in includes/classes/categories_ul_generator.php and the includes/templates/winchester_responsive/templates/tpl_modules_mobile_categories_tabs.php.

Thanks,

Anne

I found this plugin recommended on your website at https://www.picaflor-azul.com/hide-c...en-cart-plugin so I assumed that you would also therefore had made it work with your templates, else why would you recommend it...

Are you able to quote me for adapting/customising your template to work with this please? After which I will gladly donate it back to the community to use free-of-charge.

OK I made it work myself. For anyone else wishing to do make the hide categories plugin work with the responsive templates, this is what I changed:

in includes/classes/categories_ul_generator.php around lines 43 to 48

I changed:

 $categories_query = "select c.categories_id, cd.categories_name, c.parent_id
                                        from " . TABLE_CATEGORIES . " c, " . TABLE_CATEGORIES_DESCRIPTION . " cd
                                        where c.categories_id = cd.categories_id
                                        and c.categories_status=1 " .
                                        " and cd.language_id = '" . (int)$_SESSION['languages_id'] . "' " .
                                        " order by c.parent_id, c.sort_order, cd.categories_name"; 

to:

$categories_query = "select c.categories_id, cd.categories_name, c.parent_id
                                        from " . TABLE_CATEGORIES . " c, " . TABLE_CATEGORIES_DESCRIPTION . " cd," . TABLE_HIDE_CATEGORIES . " cde
                                         where c.categories_id=cd.categories_id and c.categories_id=cde.categories_id and cd.language_id='" .  (int)$_SESSION['languages_id'] . "' and c.parent_id= '0' and c.categories_status='1' and cde.visibility_status < 2 OR cde.visibility_status IS NULL;
                                        " order by c.parent_id, c.sort_order, cd.categories_name"; 

An voila! the hidden categories do NOT show up under the "Category" menu heading.

CAUTION: After install of the plugin you have to physically edit each of your categories and save them, whether or not they are hidden.
