Tiki 27.0Alpha Categories

posts: 94

On upgrading from v 26.2 to 27.0a I have the following issues

The Category ID is no longer listed alongside the Category "directory" listing.

The (files categId="x") function no longer lists the relevant objects but it does list the category name.

Am i missing some php function or option in my installation perhaps?

Hi Rod,
That looks like a regression, for sure. I see the same problem at themes.tiki.org, which has been updated to Tiki 27.0 alpha. I imagine a fix will be coming soon.

Sorry all , that was my doing...

Because it was added to 26.x non-optionally and on some sites (with 1000+ categories) looked ugly and seemed unnecessary i made it optional and tried to make it a bit less ugly for 27.x

The new pref is called category_browse_show_categids and is on the category control panel e.g. here tiki-admin.php?page=category&highlight=category_browse_show_categids (near "Show category object count ")

Guess that should be on the release notes somewhere...

hi there Jonny

Thanks that explains the lack of the CategId in the listing but does it explain the non working of the :

(files categId="x") plugin?

Regards

Rod
