Categories under grid slider builder

[littleantz]

Hi,

Is it possible for akita builder to include the categories in the selection checkbox when creating grid slider even if the category does not have a post yet?

This is becoming a problem for me because when I am adding a category that I am sure will be needed, I cannot make a grid slider based on this category. I am being forced to add a sample content which is not really good on live site.

Thanks

There is no easy way to change this from a Child theme. I’ll see about adding this in the next update.

I think you could actually do it something like this from your Child theme’s functions.php:

function my_grid_slider_options( $elements ){
	
	// Setup new select
	$select = array();
	$select['all'] = 'All Categories';
	$categories = get_categories(array('hide_empty' => false));
	foreach( $categories as $category ){
		$select[$category->slug] = $category->name;
	}
	
	// Filter them in
	$elements['post_grid_slider']['options'][5]['options'] = $select;
	
	return $elements;
}
add_filter( 'themeblvd_core_elements', 'my_grid_slider_options' );
