Hello,
I have a section XX set-up with six categories A, B, C, D, E, F. (see pic 1)
Janews2 does display them like this (see pic 2).

What I want to achieve is this (see pic 3), means category A, D and E should not be shown from janews2, also in the user settings block only B, C, F should be visible for selection (also in right order). I do not want to change the category order in the backend.

Question 1:
How can categories be hidden from being displayed in the Janews2 article block?

Question 2:
How can categories be hidden from being displayed in the Janews2 “user settings” block?

Question 3:
See pic2: The categories are not shown in the right order. How can this be realized?

Many thanks for your support !

Kind regards
d026111

Dear guy!

Sorry, At the moment, i only help you to resolve the issue: The categories are not shown in the right order. How can this be realized?

1) please open the file: modules/ja_news2/helper.php
and try to find codes at line : 420:
[PHP] $query = “SELECT `id`, `title`, `description`, CASE WHEN CHAR_LENGTH(`alias`) THEN CONCAT_WS(“:”, `id`, `alias`) ELSE `id` END as `slug` FROM `#__categories` s WHERE published = 1 and section=” . ( int ) $sid . $where[/PHP]
Replace:
[PHP] $query = “SELECT `id`, `title`, `description`, CASE WHEN CHAR_LENGTH(`alias`) THEN CONCAT_WS(“:”, `id`, `alias`) ELSE `id` END as `slug` FROM `#__categories` s WHERE published = 1 and section=” . ( int ) $sid . $where .’ ORDER BY s.ordering ASC’;[/PHP]

I have a similar question about news2.

I have a hierarchy like this:

Section: Latest News
Category: World, Local, Sport, Business, Travel.

I want to create a new category called “Shares” and put it under “Business”. Ja News2 pipes in the articles associated with the “Shares” category into a category called “Shares” on the front page. I’d like to have the category called “Shares” not display on the front page. Is there any way of enabling that?
