Hello

This plugin allows you to hide categories from unregistered users in the index page.
You can specify in the category manager which categories you want to hide and which not. There is a new field in the category editor.


Unzip it in the plugins folder and install it through the plugin manager.

There are two language file: english and french.


Bug fixed: Database name

[barjo07]

I run 1.4.24. I installed the plug-in, activated it and then called catmgr.php (the new version) but got an error message "There was an error while processing a database query".
I had a look in the database, the new field is there. When I set visibility to 1 in the db the category is indeed hidden.
But catmgr.php does not work anymore. Any clue?

Enable debug mode in config and post the actual mysql error you get.

While executing query "SELECT `visibility` FROM `cpg14x_categories` where cid = 0" on 0

mySQL error: Table '*****.cpg14x_categories' doesn't exist
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note: the prefix of the table was hidden by me because it would give too much detail about the database.

[barjo07]

The table is called cpg1410_categories.

Find

Code: [Select]

$sql = "SELECT `visibility` FROM `cpg14x_categories` where cid = $cid";

change to

Code: [Select]

$sql = "SELECT `visibility` FROM {$CONFIG['TABLE_CATEGORIES']} where cid = $cid";

Works like a charm. Thank you!

Added German language file and some minor header adjustments to the plugin and added the package to our download section at sourceforge.net: https://sourceforge.net/projects/coppermine/files/Plugins/1.4.x/cpg1.4.x_plugin_smart-catlist_v1.1.zip/download
I'm not very fond though about what the plugin does - the database modifications appear tricky to me. Thanks for the contribution, but I can not recommend this plugin.
