Hi all

I am using this into my Gallery

———————————————————-
{exp:gallery:categories gallery="{gallery_name}”}
<form>
<select name=“URL” onChange=”[removed]=this.options[this.selectedIndex].value”>
<option value=” “>Select</option> 
{exp:gallery:category_list gallery="{gallery_name}”}
<option value=”{category_path=photogallery/category}”>{category_name}</option>
{/exp:gallery:category_list}
</select> 
</form>
{/exp:gallery:categories}
———————————————————

Is there any way to exclude a specific category off this?

Thank you for your superb EE…

Welcome to the forums, Digitalp!

There is not currently a way to do this - no parameter for it, that is. You would probably want to use a custom query if you need this ability.

You could also add a feature request for this.

I can move this to how-to if you’d like to see if the community can help with a query? Let me know.

Hi Lisa and thank you.

I wish to have a quick solution for my gallery. It is a basic for me.

Do as you like. D

This wiki entry should give you an idea of what the query might look like, but it will need tweaking since it has a different purpose =) Gallery Category Images.

I am not familiar with quieries. Any help will be much appreciated.

Thank you anyway. I am waiting for someone to have a solution.

Hi Lisa, I have just made it.

Maybe somebody wants it also. If so just PM me.

Thank you.

It would be great if you could post it here, or in the wiki.  We love it when people share their solutions, gives future viewers some help.

Thanks! and glad you were able to come up with a solution!

Ok Lisa.

Let’s say that we wish category 7 not to be shown.

<form>
<select name=“URL” onChange=”[removed]=this.options[this.selectedIndex].value”>
<option value=” http://www.oursite.com/photogallery/”>select</option&gt;
{exp:query sql="SELECT c.cat_id, c.cat_name, c.cat_description FROM exp_gallery_categories AS c, exp_galleries WHERE c.gallery_id = exp_galleries.gallery_id AND exp_galleries.is_user_blog = 'n' AND exp_galleries.gallery_short_name = 'photogallery' AND c.cat_id != 7"}
<option value=”{path="photogallery/category}C{cat_id}” id=”{cat_id}”>{cat_name}</option>
{/exp:query}
</select>
</form>

That’s all. Works fine.
