Hi Steven,

I have a category hierarchy such as the following:

Oceania (parent)
– Australia
— New South Wales
— Queensland
— Western Australia
– New Zealand
— North Island
— South Island

I have no entries in Oceania, nationwide-relevant entries are categorised in Australia, and state-relevant entries are categoried by state only.

However, selecting Oceania displays all entries and Australia displays all entries in Australia plus all the sub-categories.

I guess this is intended behaviour but is there a way to display only the entries listed in each category?

Thanks,

Peter

@ Peter

Yes, that is intended behavior. It matches how WordPress would display posts by category. There is no easy way to make that change. There are only two options that I can think of off the top of my head. One is to custom code a new drop down which would be quit involved. The second option would be more of a hack. I think you can change this line to this:

if ( ! empty( $queryCategoryID ) ) $atts['category_in'] = $queryCategoryID;

That should limit the query to only the category selected. If you chose this option, you would have to reapply this change after every Connections update.

Hope that helps.
