The trick here is when to remove it as this is set based on the value of:
$do_filter_list
That changes based on:
1 go through via manufactuer and get filter on Categories
2 go through via category and get filter on Manufactuerers
This is setup in the file:
/includes/index_filters/default_filter.php
There isn't an override for this file nor a switch for that dropdown ...
The code around line 166 controls this:
PHP Code:$do_filter_list = false;
$filterlist = $db->Execute($filterlist_sql);
if ($filterlist->RecordCount() > 1) {
$do_filter_list = true;
if (isset($_GET['manufacturers_id'])) {
$getoption_set = true;
$get_option_variable = 'manufacturers_id';
$options = array(array('id' => '', 'text' => TEXT_ALL_CATEGORIES));
} else {
$options = array(array('id' => '', 'text' => TEXT_ALL_MANUFACTURERS));
}
while (!$filterlist->EOF) {
$options[] = array('id' => $filterlist->fields['id'], 'text' => $filterlist->fields['name']);
$filterlist->MoveNext();
}
}
