Feature missing in Version 10: "hide category on post and category pages"

Posted in: Newspaper

Hi,
we are missing the feature “hide category on post and category pages” in version 10 of the newspaper theme.
Normally the feature/settings could be found in the default category settings (as mentioned here https://forum.tagdiv.com/default-category-settings/).

Is there still a way to hide a category “system-wide”? (for hidden categories to sort things up)

Thank you!

Hi,

Indeed the featured category is now display in cloud templates, if you want to hide it, you need to use a custom css like this one -> https://i.imgur.com/BCYhMWC.jpg -> https://i.imgur.com/ilbLoju.png
.tdb-category a[href$="/featured/"] {
display: none;
}

This code need to be set in theme panel> custom code> custom css.

Hope this will help you!
Thank you!

Hi Calin,

I am not talking about the “featured” category – I am missing the feature to hide specific categories from posts and category pages (in blocks etc.) site-wide.

Is this still possible?

Thank you!

Hi,

Sorry, was my mistake, I understand something else.
If you want to edit the posts/categories that you want to be display in block you can do this using the filter tab from tagdiv Composer, and set the “-” before the category id or post id that you want to be removed. You can check more about this in our guide from here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/

Thank you!

Hi Calin,

sorry, maybe my explanation was not good enough 🙂

I dont want to exclude posts from specific categories. I want to hide the graphical tags from specific categories.

Example given: we have a post with category “Love” AND category “no-ads”. The category “no-ads” is used internally to hide ads from posts with this category.

In the old newspaper version there was a the “hide category on post and category pages” feature, for handling such internal-organization-categories. Now it is gone.

Is there still a possibility to hide a category (not the posts, only the graphical tags of the category) from archives, blocks, breadcrumbs etc.?

It’s not about filtering posts, it’s really only the graphical representation of categories (in the breadcrumbs, in the tag boxes etc.). Just to hide it with CSS makes no sense, because then the categorie tag box in some block elements is empty (instead of holding the real main Category – in our example “Love”).

Thank you!

Here you can find the feature in the old documentation:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/default-category-settings/

“You can change:
– the category template – pick one of the 8 category header styles
– the category top post – Select one of the 22 beautiful grids to highlight your top post, or simply disable it
– the category top posts styles – pick one of the 7 styles to display your grids
– the article display view – you have 19 different modules available to display the articles on your category page
– use sidebar (right or left) or just plain content and no sidebar
– category tag color (available on individual settings)
– background used on the category page: image or color
– an option to hide the category tag on posts and category pages

Hi,

That option is still available in Newspaper v10.3.6 -> https://i.imgur.com/1cLOTEK.png it can be set from theme panel per each category individual. To be able to use it you must have tagDiv Standard Pack enable -> https://i.imgur.com/m2ED59L.png

Thank you for your understanding!

Hi,

Please replace the above css with this one
.tdb-category a[href$="/featured/"] , .tdc-content-wrap .td-module-meta-info a[href$="/featured/"], .td_block_wrap .td-module-container a[href$="/featured/"]{
display: none;
}

Hope this will work better!
Thank you!
