Re: Hidden Categories

Thank you, Darren.

I was able to locate the exact code in the func.category.php file, however, changing it does not seem to have corrected the problem for me. Sorry. :(

Re: Hidden Categories

Yes sorry for the delay here. Edit exactly what he said and then clear your sites cache. By going to http://www.yoursite.com/cleanup.php then see if it works properly.

Re: Hidden Categories

oooooo... let me try that (I have to wait until I get home and can access the files).

Re: Hidden Categories

Hrm. That didn't seem to work either. I am going to rework the mod, just to make sure I did not accidentally overlook any of the steps and then try your suggestions again.

Thank you both for trying to help me out!

Re: Hidden Categories

I did change 2 other lines:

Code:

$search_condition[] = "node.avail = 'Y'";

Code:

$search_condition[] = "(node.avail = 'Y' OR node.avail = 'H')";

and ...

Code:

$search_condition[] = "c.avail = 'Y'";

Code:

$search_condition[] = "(c.avail = 'Y' OR c.avail = 'H')";

Those might of made it work as well.

Was this still in the func.category.php file?

Re: Hidden Categories

Ok everyone for 4.2.x func.category.php should have the following edits ONLY:

Find the following:

Code:

if (empty($mexists)) {

Below it change this:

Code:

$subcat_count = func_query_first_cell.........

To this:

Code:

$subcat_count = func_query_first_cell("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM $sql_tbl[categories] USE INDEX (pa) WHERE $sql_tbl[categories].categoryid_path LIKE '$path' AND ($sql_tbl[categories].avail = 'Y' OR $sql_tbl[categories].avail = 'H')");

Then find:

Code:

} elseif (!empty($lvl)) {

Below it change this:

Code:

$subcat_count = func_query_hash..............

To this:

Code:

$subcat_count = func_query_hash("SELECT COUNT(*) as subcategory_count, IFNULL($sql_tbl[category_memberships].membershipid, 0) as membershipid FROM $sql_tbl[categories] USE INDEX (pa) LEFT JOIN $sql_tbl[category_memberships] ON $sql_tbl[category_memberships].categoryid = $sql_tbl[categories].categoryid WHERE $sql_tbl[categories].categoryid_path LIKE '$path' AND ($sql_tbl[categories].avail = 'Y' OR $sql_tbl[categories].avail = 'H') GROUP BY $sql_tbl[category_memberships].membershipid", "membershipid", false, true);

Then find:

Code:

$search_condition_2 = "";

   if ($current_area == "C" || $current_area == "B") {

Below it change this:

Code:

$search_condition_2 = " AND...");

To this:

Code:

$search_condition_2 = " AND ($sql_tbl[categories].avail = 'Y' OR $sql_tbl[categories].avail = 'H')";

THESE ARE THE ONLY EDITS THAT SHOULD HAVE $sql_tbl[categories].avail = 'H' in them. If they exist anywhere else, please remove it from the query. Let me know, this should take care of everyones problems. :)
After these edits are completed remove your stores cache for templates by going to http://www.yourstore.com/cleanup.php and then check your site to see if everything is working properly now!

Re: Hidden Categories

These new instructions for func.category.php (replacing the previous edits for the file) along with the instructions from the previous post works for 4.3.2! Thank you so much!!!

Re: Hidden Categories

Your welcome. Sorry for the long delay to get this resolved!! :) :)
