Enhancement for better theming

[Amurdad]

Hi,

First of all thanks for your very useful and greath plugin. I’m on my way to setup this plugin for my site an came along a special request. I don’t want to change / mod your plugin directly if I can avoid.

So it would be greath if you could consider the following change:

function categories_group($name, $show_mode = false, $taxonomy = ‘category’, $top_level = false) {
$categories = get_categories( array( ‘taxonomy’ => $taxonomy, ‘hide_empty’ => 0 , ‘parent’ => (($top_level) ? 0 : ”) ) );

I need to filter for custom taxonomy. Mayby passing the args would do best and keep flexibility.

function categories_group($name, $show_mode = false, $cat_args = ”) {
$categories = get_categories( $args );

Best regards

Hi, thank you I’ll keep you code for a future release. In the meanwhile you don’t need to modify the plugin: if you code a custom theme, you can add your own controls to extract the custom taxonomies.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. Can you tell me how to add new controls to your class without editing it? That would be perfectly fit my needs, because I’m working on a custom theme.

Hi, you can create your own control an keep them in the theme.php file. You can access the option using $controls->data which is the array with all the options.
