Hi,

In order to exclude user from filter list in Module, go to file:

modules\mod_jak2filter\helper.php

find :

$query = 'SELECT DISTINCT '.$display.' AS name, u.id AS value
            FROM #__users AS u 
            INNER JOIN #__k2_items AS i ON u.id = i.created_by
            WHERE i.published = 1
            ORDER BY u.id';

change to:

$query = 'SELECT DISTINCT '.$display.' AS name, u.id AS value
            FROM #__users AS u 
            INNER JOIN #__k2_items AS i ON u.id = i.created_by
            WHERE i.published = 1
            AND u.id NOT IN (42)
            ORDER BY u.id';

42 is the id of user that you want to exclude, each id is separated by comma

Thats not cool! It works of course but on update all changes will be gone!?

Please consider to implement this as an option in the module! Thats a common feature. I dont think that I´m the only one who needs that.

Just a simple text field where I can put in the comma seperated ids.
I cant tell the customer to go into that file if he needs to exclude more users.

I bought a membership just for this module.

Thx so far.
