    Hi,
    I’ve recently ported https://www.factorydesign.co.uk to WordPress, and it’s working great! However, we have a list of clients on the RHS, which is generated from the sub-category of teh ‘clients’ category.

    Ideally I want to show empty clients, but NOT as links. I know that if I change hide_empty=1 to 0 then the empty post appear in the links, however, how can I disable the link, or make it a # for example?

    Many thanks
    Lee

  • You’ll have to do something like child_of=#&hide_empty or parent=#&hide_empty for the args, # being the main category they are listed under, but this should work…

    $categories = get_categories('hide_empty=0');

	foreach ($categories as $cat) {
		if ($cat->count) {
			echo '<a href="?cat=' . $cat->term_id . '">' . $cat->cat_name . '</a><br />';
		}
		else {
			echo $cat->cat_name . '<br />';
		}
	}
