Dropdown Category Name

No need to edit any files.

Please see this tutorial:

• https://connections-pro.com/documentation/tile-plus/#How_do_I_use_the_str*****_shortcode_options

So you would use the shortcode:

• [connections str_select='Select Practice Areas']

I hope this helps!

Thank you!!! That was easy!

Is there a way to show all categories except one? Right now it pulls the category “Lawyers” but I’d like to remove the parent category so it doesn’t show in the dropdown, but if I do it will pull paralegals and other groups as well.

Not sure I completely understand
If you use this shortcode, it shows layers only (including any children categories of lawyers:

• [connections str_select='Select Practice Areas' category=29]

Link to the doc page for the category shortcode option.

I hope this helps!

I guess what I’m saying is: Can I show everything except one category. So instead of category=29 it would be like hide_category=29 …

You can exclude a category, though, I am not exactly sure that is the right solution, may it is

Example:

• [connections str_select='Select Practice Areas' exclude_category=29]

That didn’t work for me, but thank you!
