    Hi there – is there a way to remove the category dropdown and search bar from showing on this page: http://www.whatsoninourbackyard.com.au/family-friendly-restaurants/

    I’ve used a shortcode on the page so that just that one category shows up.

    Thanks.

    Navigate to the Connections : Templates admin page and click the Customize button for the cMap template. The page will refresh with the Customizer on the left and a preview on the right.

    Click the back arrow in the upper left of the Customizer. You will see a panel for both Search and Category Select. Under each of these there is the option to disable.

    After you disable both, click the Save and Publish button.

    Hope that helps!

    I did do that, however I have another pages of the website where I do want it to show, and the instructions above disables it for all pages. Is there any way to disable it just for the page I am referring to? Thanks

    Try adding enable_search=false to the shortcode on that page. That should do it.

    Hi – This is the code I am using

    [connections category_in='88']

    where do I put the extra line?

    I’ve tried
    [connections category_in='88' enable_search=false] but that doesnt seem to work.

    Thanks.

    @ Saffron Quantrell

    The correct shortcode would be:

    [connections category_in='88' enable_search=false]

    If you copy/pasted the enable_search=false from my reply into the WP post editor then it is likely the underlying HTML was also pasted. This breaks the ability of WordPress to properly read the shortcode.

    My suggestion is to either delete the shortcode entirely and manually type it back in or switch the post editor to the Text tab and delete any HTML tags that are in and or around the shortcode.

    Hope this helps, let me know.

    Hi – thanks, that removes the search bar but I want to also remove the category dropdown. How do I do that please? Thanks.

    Add enable_category_select=false to the shortcode.

    You can actually find these option in the documentation for cMap.

    Hope this helps!
