    Wow! Thanks for this cool plugin.
     
    Please include checkboxes in the option panel (backend) to disable Categories and / or Tags in the frontend. That would be really helpful while providing a clean and simple workflow for my users.

    Hi @schwarzaufweiss
    Thanks for your input.
    We will keep in our suggestion list to make them as optional.

    This option is crucial in my opinion. Regular members should have access to different categories than the admins. Is there a way we can disable this with code? What files must be modified?

    Oh wow! Thank you!

    Do you need the actual category names or the IDs. I will provide both.
    These are the categories that I don’t want to appear on the front-end to the subscriber. However, as an admin, I want access to them on the back-end.

    Hi @kaypitre
    Inside plugin folder

    includes/sap-functions.php line 318
    replace

    
    <?php wp_dropdown_categories( 'hide_empty=0&id=sap-cat' ); ?>
    

    with

    
    <?php wp_dropdown_categories( 'hide_empty=0&id=sap-cat&exclude=array(10,95,100)' ); ?>
    

    where 10, 95, 100 are those category id which you do not want to display for member

    you can add more ids in same pattern with comma separated values

    Let me know if it solve your requirement

    @vapvarun Is there a way to put the remaining categories in the drop-down list in alphabetical order?

    @vapvarun

    Hi @kaypitre

    You can use like this

    
    <?php wp_dropdown_categories( 'hide_empty=0&id=sap-cat&orderby=name&exclude=array(10,95,100)' ); ?>
    

    Regards

    @vapvarun Thanks for that great support you’re providing – but please don’t forget about my inital feature request to completely disable Categories and / or Tags in the frontend.
