Subject: Category appears where we don't want it
Several versions back dotcms removed the checkbox on category for
making them active and instead decided to just use permissioning as a
method of determining it's use. However, we have a calendar page that
shows the word False in the Category listings for the items if they
have selected "Show on Front Page" category. We use that because we
can permission a category to only allow a CMS Admin to be able to
select an event to go to the home page. Having CMS Anonymous selected
on the category makes it show up as in the list of categories for the
calendar event. Short of doing an if statment in the loop to check for
the value, is there a way to set a category to some permission that it
can be pulled but not displayed?

I'd also be interested in the answer to Brad's question.

Subject: Re: [dotcms] Category appears where we don't want it

Brad,

Could you please explain what you want to achieve in more detail?

This is what I understand:

* You have a category Show on Front Page
* You use the category to categorize content to be displayed on the home
page
* You only wants CMS Admins to use this category

If this is correct, you should remove all permissions from the category and
only CMS admins would be able to use it.

You'll need CMS Anonymous to show the content in the frontend.

But only having this permission should not allow other editors to use it,
only the ones that have a role associated with the category.

Thanks
Maria

Yes, that is all good, but on the out of the box Calendar, all the
categories are pulled in a listing so you can click a category. I
don't want True and False showing on the calendar.

Brad,

Would you send me a link to the page where it's showing?

I don't think I'm understanding the issue right.

Thanks

Sure: http://www.uakron.edu/calendar/index.dot?id=ef584978-353e-411e-818f-a...

See where it says Calendars: Home Page , True

I guess the solution would be to move the category into it's own
category. This was built as you know way back in 1.5 and has been
updated and updated. I think before we lost the checkbox on category
it worked ok.

I can see that, so this means you have Home Page as a category parent and
True and False as subcategories?

Brad,

If you remove the CMS Anonymous from the parent category Home Page, it
would not show at all there which is what you want right?

And I think the content should still show up because True and False would
still have CMS Anonymous.

Or do you want to show Home Page only?

-Maria

The even on our home page is based upon pulling by that category. So
that would break the home page pull wouldn't it?

Ok so when you pull content on the home page, what category are you using?

Home Page, True or False?

I'm thinking True right? If not then I'm not sure why you need the
subcategories True and False

Subject: Re: [dotcms] Category appears where we don't want it
I think I see the problem now. I have two Home Page categories. One
inside the Calendar Categories and one as a category of it's own. I'll
have to check to see which one they are using. Is there an easy want
for me to find out what category is what? Here is what my query looks
like: #pullContent('+structureInode:70574 +languageId:1 +c1021033c:on
+deleted:false +live:true','1','date2 desc')

How do I find out what 1021033 is?

If you have access to the database you can run

select * from category where inode = '1021033';
