Is there a way to change the menu list for the drop down. I have setup two boxes for the two sections that I would like to display an article for. The drop down shows all categories under that section but I would only like it to display 4 specific categories. Is this possible.

When I click on any of the items in the menu I don’t get that category but the link to the section. Where would the link be managed?

Thanks

Current your idea does not support in the ja news module.

Please open file templatesja_vauxitehtmlmod_janewsblog_item.php , at about line 35, find following script:

[PHP]if ($catorsec) {
$subcatlink = JRoute::_(ContentHelperRoute::getCategoryRoute($obj->id , $obj->section));
}else{
$subcatlink = JRoute::_(ContentHelperRoute::getSectionRoute($obj->section));
}[/PHP]

and change to:

[PHP]//if ($catorsec) {
$subcatlink = JRoute::_(ContentHelperRoute::getCategoryRoute($obj->id , $obj->section));
//}else{
//$subcatlink = JRoute::_(ContentHelperRoute::getSectionRoute($obj->section));
//}[/PHP]
