I would like to have how default all the categories
hidden;
can you suggest which is the cahnge that I must to do?

Now by default in admin all the categories are
checked and if you remove checked you can
hidden categories;

I would like to have the opposite:
I think there are two solutions:
-1 by default if all is checked then the categories
are hidden and if I remove check I can see it;
or
2 by default all isn’t checked and I not see
categories; only if I check I see categories;

I think found the parameter for to change but
have always problem that if one click same time button submit changes all checked switch at every
click;
can help

HI!!

I recently downloaded your plugin today; however i am having problems with it. When I go to ‘Manage’ it doesn’t show me any options for the catagory visibility plugin. I’m not sure what i’m doing wrong. I have Owen Winkler’s “role manager” and i have the latest version of wordpress (20.5). Any help would be appreciated!!

Thanks again, for a wonderful plugin!

This plugin appears to do most of what I would like it to do with one exception: I have the need for a subcategory to not only not show up on the main page but also not show up under the main category page as well.

i.e.,

Plants
+–general information
+–hints

This is not what I’m using but simply an example. In this case I wouldn’t want hints showing up under the category posts since hints would be a specific thing to look up and not something desired as a regular post. I would only want it showing up when the user specifically selects the hints subcategory.

I understand that may be a bit out of the ordinary but, in my case, very necessary.

Regards, Veg

I’m on WP 1.5. I tried:
http://www.gudlyf.com/media/category_visibility-wp1.5.phps
and
http://www.gudlyf.com/media/category_visibility.phps (.31)
And both caused db errors. The first one caused errors on the admin side, the second one caused errors on the public side.

Hey thanks for this kickass plugin. I was stressing about unchecking the visible at front attribute producing a blank post instead of content. Fortunately, such a problem became a huge feature! My site has tutorials as well as news. I wanted these content feeds separate for the user. What I’ve done was created a tutorials page with tutorial post links and a tutorials category. I unchecked the list attribute for the tutorials category. Now traffic, wanting to see the list of tutorials will be diverted to a page list I’ve made instead of a category with all media content loaded! My tutorials will have lots of images and video, so you’d wonder how I’d prevent them from loading on the main page? I use the tag directly below my intro paragraph. This not only cuts the media from loading on the main page, but notifies users about the new tut. Thanks for this!
