When viewing the categories as a list and when it shows a category with a subcategory it displays it as:
Category >> Subcategory
Is it possible to remove the "Category >> " and just have the subcategory name?
Thanks,
Wesley

Re: How to remove "Category >>" when view subcategories?
Hi, I'm sorry, I've tried all the variations I can think of but am unable to get it to work. I have a category called '2009', and for an example I have a subcategory called 'Las Vegas Vacation'. For menu type I have "Phoca Gallery Category List Layout" selected and have the '2009' category hidden and display subcategories visible, so it just shows all the subcategories of '2009'.
So when I click on my photo gallery link it shows a list of subcategories as:
2009 >> Las Vegas Vacation
Could you please tell me which setting I set in my Menu parameters to show only 'Las Vegas Vacation' without the "2009 >> "?
Thanks!,
Wesley

Hi, there is no such option
, as the categories are created by tree, so they includes parent category. So such behaviour needs to be customized in the code, so you will customize the recursive function which displays the categories, see model of categories view.

Hi Jan, a long time, but it is my turn to open this old thread. I have the same problem today in 2016. I am reviewing components \ com_phocagallery \ models \ categories.php but I can not figure it out.
Do you have any suggestion?
Thank you

Hi, see the function function _categoryTree( $data, $tree, $id = 0, $text='', $currentId) {
The $show_text = $text . $key->title; gets the text of the category tree, so there should be done a customized if clause to handle the text for your needs.
