Category question

[kohli11]

Hi,

as far as I understand I allways have a 'default'-Category which I may rename... So far so good.
But there is also a category called 'all'. How can I delete this category?
I made some new categories and later deleted all for testing reasons. But there is allways the 'all'-category and it doesn't show up in the admin - category panel?

It is hardcoded in PP code.

[kohli11]

...this means I can not remove it?!? Or..yes I can if I change the code?

Yes, You can if you make code change on own hand.

Stephan,

this just offers the choice to list all thumbnails again, to call again the browse-page with "all" thumbs

[kohli11]

...therefore there is the 'default'-category!?

no. default category is not necessarily for all images - it's more just a temporary category. i changed mine to 'portraits' and only assigned it to portraits. default is not a replacement for 'all'.

if you want to remove the all selection from the category select box on a browse page go to index.php and change the lines:

$browse_select = "<select name='browse' onchange='self.location.href=this.options[this.selectedIndex].value;'><option value=''>$lang_browse_select_category</option><option value='index.php?x=browse&amp;category='>$lang_browse_all</option>";

to

$browse_select = "<select name='browse' onchange='self.location.href=this.options[this.selectedIndex].value;'><option value=''>$lang_browse_select_category</option>";
