How to display specific categories

Hello,

I would like to display certain specified categories on a page (for example, Archive). And I want those categories to be active (visible) only if they have posts. For example, January, February, March, April (here in April, we don’t have any posts yet… when there are posts in this category, “April” should appear). Is this possible?

Thank you in advance

Hello,

I found a solution. You can do it using this code. I have created a menu with categories :).

add_filter( ‘wp_nav_menu_objects’, ‘hide_empty_categories_from_menu’, 10, 2 );
function hide_empty_categories_from_menu( $items, $args ) {
foreach ( $items as $key => $item ) {
if ( $item->object == ‘category’ ) {
$category = get_category( $item->object_id );
if ( $category->count == 0 ) {
unset( $items[ $key ] );
}
}
}
return $items;
}
