How can I use subcategory at “posts category slider” ?

  • I use BlossomThemes Toolkit and　I am grateful for the good design of this plugin.
    I’m using two post category sliders on the the top page.
    One is a slider that introduces products, and the other is a slider for staff blogs.

    — category structure —
    products
    staff-blogs
    ├─office-a
    └─office-b

    TOPAGE – posts category slider – [products]
    – posts category slider – [staff-blogs]

    Now I need to archive all the categories and put all the previous category structure under the newly created “all” category

    — new category structure —
    all
    ├─products
    └─staff-blogs
    ├─office-a
    └─office-b

    And because the Post category sliders usually only select top-level categories, so
    the same post category slider on the top page is now displayed.

    TOPAGE – posts category slider – [all]
    – posts category slider – [all]

    I want to use the post category slider that uses two different categories on the top page while using the “all” category.

    How can I use subcategory at “posts category slider” ?

    Hi @blossomthemessupport

    Thank you for your reply.

    However, I guess it will be hard to understand really with screen shot.

    It was not a very good solution, but solved a problem unwillingly by modifying a source.

    As follows:
    diff -r blossomthemes-toolkit.2.2.0/includes/widgets/widget-posts-category-slider.php blossomthemes-toolkit/includes/widgets/widget-posts-category-slider.php
    219c219
    < <?php foreach( get_terms( ‘category’, ‘parent=0&hide_empty=0’ ) as $term ){ ?>
    —
    > <?php foreach( get_terms( ‘category’, ‘hide_empty=0’ ) as $term ){ ?>

    In this way, I can make the sliders of plural child categories.

    Except that trouble of this solution increases at the time of plug in update solving my trouble.

    I am glad when I could use this option with this plugin by future update.
    Thank you for a very wonderful tool.
