Check cat for children

  • I have not found an easy way to check a category to see if it has children or not. Anyone have any ideas?

  • This checks if Category 2 has children. Actually it checks the “wp_categories” table to see if any category has Category 2 for a parent.

    
<?php $haveparent = $wpdb->get_row("SELECT * FROM $wpdb->categories WHERE category_parent = 2", ARRAY_N);
  if (is_array($haveparent)) {
     echo 'I am a parent'; }
?>
