ParticipantHi,
I would like to hide the category drop down but keep my selected category in my page

Could you please tell me how I can achieve this ?Thank you in advance !

ParticipantSven,
Thank you for the answer.
i tried already this shortcode.
problem is, it somehow cancel all my selected category in the page and list all entries, from all categories in the page.Sorry I don’t know if I explain it right.
As you can see , in red are the categories I want to have listed in the page “Clubs de race” “Autour du clyde” “Eleveurs” .
Somwhere in the website I have another page where I list all the others categories I have.
At the moment I use the enable_category_select=false, I get all my entries listed, doesn’t matter which category, selected in the page or not .You can have a look at the page, I used [connections enable_category_select=false]
just that you get my problem right . http://dev.clydesdale.fr/?page_id=74Thanks again for your help and your time

Keymaster@ Aurore
You need to use the category shortcode option to limit the list to the specific category. So you would have something like this:
[connections enable_category_select='FALSE' category="X"]
X would equal the category ID you want to display.

You can not use the category name with the category option. You need to use the category ID as shown in the examples and my instructions from the previous reply. If you want to use the category name, you need to use the category_name option like you have done with the last three shortcodes. Also, if you use the category name, you need to put quotes around the category names. With that said, this should work:
