The last two days I’ve been fiddling around how to display entries only from parent category.

I have created a called section which has the following structure:
Home
About Us
- Person A
- Person B
Projects
- Project A
- Project B
- Project C
Contact

When publishing an entry (e.g.) for Person A section, which is a sub category, it automatically select the parent category (About Us) as well.

When I go to the “About Us” page, it automatically display entries which are in “Person A” category.
I don’t want to see entries from “Person A” when I’m displaying “About Us” page.

How can I control to show only entries which are in a parent category, but not in a sub category of the parent category.

Regards,

Robin

The default behavior of EE and nested Categories states that any child category selected will also mark the entry as belonging to the parent… hence ur result.

try turning off “Auto-Assign Category Parents”

If this option is set to “yes”, when new entries that contain category assignments are submitted, the “parent” category of any sub-categories will be automatically assigned. If set to “no”, the entry will only be assigned to the child category.

Thanks for your answer. Works like a charm.

Thanks for the assist, Cheif.
