Hide categorie if it has no products (for main and sub cats)

Alex H · May 4, 2003

Hi,

is there a way or contribution to hide the categories in the categories box, wich has no products in it?

- A subcategorie should not be shown, if products count = 0

- A top level categorie should not be shown, if products count = 0 and if all related subcategories has also a products count = 0

thx for help

Alex

I dont know of one that will hide if zero, but there is one to hide categories from admin:

i tested this already, but I need a query, so the hiding process is done automatically.

The products table will be updated by our inhouse system and I won?t check the categories wich has products everytime by myself.

This could happen several times a week - too much work :wink:

Looks like someone else had the same question quite some time ago, maybe this bit of code will get you on the right track:

ps:

I try to make a new category box (design and functions) and release my first contribution :shock:
