How can I chose specific categories per link?

Hello there,

Let`s consider this example: I have 3 different categories published in my gallery and I have two links in my webpage. When I clicked on the first link, I`d like to show the categories 1 and 2. And when I clicked on the second link, I`d like to show just categorie 3.

Is it possible?

Because:
If I use Phoca Gallery All categories, then it shows ALL categories published.
If I use Phoca Gallery Category, then it shows just ONE categorie and without gallery organization.

Waiting suggestions.

:?

In the menulink (with view categories) you can specify the categories which you want to hide.
See:

Jan and I were posting at the same time...

I started doubting myself ('cause he's a Hero 8) and I'm only a member :idea: ), checked out at my own website, and it is possible to hide categories. So I suggest you make 2 menu links and in the first you hide your 3rd category and in the second link you hide the categories 1 and 2.

It's a workaround, but should do, so I thought. (or isn't this what you want?)

Good luck,

Carolien

Great caro84g. I forgot that the parameter: hide categories is contained in component too, so this solution will work

BTW: I will reduce the 100 posts limit to 50 so you will be the first who gets the two stars... :-) congratulations ... next (3 stars = 100 posts) you will be the Phoca Professional...

Hey guys,

First of all, thank you caro84g and Jan by replies. :wink:

This suggestion makes sense, but it did not work here...

How should I type the name of categorie in the box "Hide Categories"?

Should I make an extra configuration to "Hide Categories" works? Like change any variable that it is setted as "use global" by default.

I feel we are close to solve this issue...

Still :?

Solved Solved Solved!!

It worked!

We must type the categoryid number and if we want to hide more than one categorie, we must separate them using ;.

Hey Jan, I advice to insert this mini configuration in the Tooltip of "Hide Categories".

Thank you one more time Carolien!!

:D

I have the same problem now. Has the option disappeared for "List of Categories"?
