Categories list to show only 1 category & number of items?

Tuan everything seems to be working fine now.

Thank you for your quick response and for the modification.

Greatly appreciated,

George

Great. Happy to hear that and thanks George for the update

Tuan

Sorry Tuan,
I jumped the gun.
I cleared the cache and the menu links worked correctly the 1st time but then after trying them again they reverted to adding the "/default" at the end.

I am submitting a support ticket.

Hi George

The /default in URL is not something comes from the extension. So honestly, I do not know where it comes from and it could be a hard issue. We will try to change something on your site (for example, disable certain third part plugin, switch template....) to see which one causes this strange issue

Hi Tuan,
thanks for all your help on the /default issue.
It's a SP Pagebuilder issue and I'm hoping they can fix it.

Now I seem to have another issue that may be a result of the MP Pro View & category list (single category).
I have created one module with catA I have created a 2nd module catB
The catA module renders nicely on the page but only if I don't choose a category and leave it blank in the Menu Items section .
It will not show up on the page if I choose the appropriate category.
catB will not show up a well if I choose it's category. It will show the first category I created in MP which is catA.

So it seems the menu link with category list is not working when you select a category.

Hello George

When you select a category in that section, it will display children categories of the category. I guess you do not have children categories for that selected category and that's the reason no categories are being shown, could you please check ?

Yes that's correct, there are no children categories, just the main categories.
I was hoping to show how many items are in each main category not how many children items there are in the category.
So catA will display "catA 2 plans" like I have setup in EB "categoryA 2 events" etc.

I also would like the items to show underneath the category like on the Events Booking Module

categoryA catB
2 events 4 plans

Which file would I have to change in MP and create an override for?

I don't really understand your question. if the module is configured to display Categories List menu item type, then the list of categories should be displayed. And next to each category there should be number of plans belong to that category displayed already. You should not have to modify code/ making an override here

Hi Tuan,
I'm sorry I'm not explaining myself very well.

I am using the EB module Events Booking - Easy View 
I created a menu item and chose EB Categories - List Layout
I chose one category to display

The result on my page is that I get the category name with the number of items in that category

 

So now I am trying to create the same in MP
1 category and number of items in that category

 

I would also like to have the MP display the number of items below the category title like in the EB module.

My problem when I create a new menu item MP Categories list (and new module MP Pro View) and go to Data Filtering to choose the Category it will not render anything on the screen, no category title or number of items show up.
If I leave it blank it will default to the first category which I created and display properly with the number of items in that category.
The second image "Webinars 2 plans" is the only one which will render.

I hope this helps

Hi George

For this, better submit a support ticket so that I can check your setup. Please submit a support ticket sending us:

1. Super user account account of your site

2. Link to the page

3. Tell me ID of the module which you are setting up

I will check to see what's wrong and guide you to check it from there

Regards,

Tuan
