Member Category Depth

[Grae]

Hello,

I have a depth of 2 set for my gallery index. I have one category setup as a members category, and a few other normal categories. When viewing the gallery index, the separate member galleries do not show up (good thing), but their sub-folders do. Is there an easy way to change this? Maybe by checking for a specific category id when displaying the gallery index? Any suggestion on where the changes should be made?

Thanks

See if this option will do what you need:


Show Sub-Categories
This option will allow you to display links to a category's sub-categories in the category listings.

Try looking in your gallery/index.php file for this code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

Replace with this:

Content visible to verified customers only.

And that should do the trick.

Wow, thanks for the quick replies!

Brian,
The code did not seem to work. I would post a link, but I am using a different category layout until I can fix this. Are the sub-categories within a particular member's gallery considered a member category? I think that might be the problem.

I will try to give a better example below; sorry about the mess.


I have a member gallery under the name of Grae:
Grae
___Family (my family pics)
___Pets (pics of my pets)


My gallery index is showing this:
Member Galleries
___Family
___Pets
Contest Gallery
___July '05


I would like it to show this:
Member Galleries
Contest Gallery
___July '05

That's what I get for being in a hurry. I just updated the post above and it should include the correct changes this time.

I am still having the same problem, but really appreciate the help.
One idea that might fix this, would be to count a member's folder within a member category as part of the depth count. The family and pets folders below automatically have a depth level of 2, where as imo they should have a depth level of 3.

Gallery Structure:
Member Galleries
___Grae
______Family
______Pets
___Sarah
______Friends
Contest Gallery
___July 2005


Current Display (depth=2):
Member Galleries
___Family
___Pets
___Friends
Contest Gallery
___July 2005


Desired Display (depth=2):
Member Galleries
Contest Gallery
___ July 2005

I was able to get the affect I wanted by doing the following in the gallery index.php file:

find

Content visible to verified customers only.

add this below it

Content visible to verified customers only.

Foresee any problem with doing it this way? Thanks for your help.

Are you sure you used the same code I posted above? I just double checked and it is working fine on my localhost...

As long as you get the output you're looking for then I don't see any problems with that method.

Yes I used the exact code you posted, even after you updated it.

Content visible to verified customers only.

Thanks again

Weird... Not sure why it wasn't working for you, but I guess the important part is that you were able to get the result you were looking for.
