 Scrollbox for CATEGORIES in Add / Edit News |
 |
I created this little code modification for use on a CuteNews.ru installation on which I had over sixty categories with high odds of adding more in the future. Needless to say, the sixty alone created quite a page stretch.
I am not very familiar with PHP so my code may not have been made in the most practical manner, if you have any thoughts or tips please feel free to contribute.
To add this to your add / edit news page:
Open /inc/plugins.inc.php
Find:
 |  | if ($category = category_get_tree(' ', '<label for="cat{id}"><input type="checkbox" [php]multicats({id})[/php] name="cat[{id}]" id="cat{id}")"> {name}</label><br />')){
return '<fieldset><legend>'.$echo['category'].'</legend>'.$category.'</fieldset>';
} |
Replace with:
| | if ($category = category_get_tree(' ', '<label for="cat{id}"><input type="checkbox" [php]multicats({id})[/php] name="cat[{id}]" id="cat{id}")"> {name}</label><br />')){
return ' <font style="color: #ccc; width: 100%; font-size: 10px; font-weight: bold; border-bottom: solid 1px #f7f7f7; padding-bottom: 5px; margin-bottom: 5px;">Category</font><br><br>
<div style="margin-left: 10px; width: 220; height: 200; border: solid 1px #a7a6aa; text-align: left; overflow: auto; padding: 5px;"><fieldset>'.$category.'</fieldset></div><br>';
} |
And there you should be all set!

| Categories not Comments... |
|
Ugh, I mis-named this topic originally. Categories, not comments, are scrollable from this.

Oooh, I like. I always have the dilemma of too many categories, not enough room. Nice work

Mwah its an ok alternative when you have many categories, maybe you should work on a dropdown box instead of that scrollbar.

Thanks, I decided I needed to do something cause I had 60+ categories and it is destined to grow over time.

I'm honestly not sure how I would do that. I like the checkboxes which is why I did it this way.

That's cool, but I still like checkboxes.
