Is it possible to restrict access of categories ?
« on: July 21, 2005, 03:43:52 pm »

I restricted the access of some albums (in the config panel "can be viewed by") to the desired users. Then I grouped all those albums in a category.
On my home page I display "catlist/alblist...".
When I access to the home page (non logged), the restricted albums are hidden but the categories are still visible, empty but visible.
Is there a way to hide empty or "hidden" categories?

I supose I should add a criteria in the "function get_cat_list(&$breadcrumb, &$cat_data, &$statistics)" in index.php that checks if the number of albums selected for the current user is 0.
But I need some help for the code.

Found !

In theme.php I deleted the code in the section

<!-- BEGIN catrow_noalb -->
<!-- END catrow_noalb -->

and seems to work.

see my reply to the other identical thread you started: I don't think that this solution will actually work. Next time you want to hire someone for a task you already started a thread for, just reply to your existing thread accordingly and a moderator will move your thread to the freelancer sub-board - there's no point in cross-posting nor double-posting.
