My Maps with K2 categories field with only children

Hi,

Thanks for contacting us here about this extension.

I'm using My Maps Location whit K2 Items. Is it possible to view only children category in the category selct field?
I.e.
I've got the following tree structure

Category 1
--- Subcategory 1.1
--- Subcategory 1.2
--- Subcategory 1.3
Category 2
--- Subcategory 2.1
--- Subcategory 2.2

Now, in every map in the category select field I can see all categories and subcategories but I want to see only Categoy 1 and its 3 children subcategories

Yes, you should enable Display category filter parameter in settings. On frontend, you can select Category 1, then you will see what in category 1 can its sub.

Hope it helps!
Cheers,

if you check the default_form.php there the code is written as $this->k2category whih create the category box.
$this->k2catid=JFactory::getApplication()->input->getInt('k2_catid',$this->extra_catid);

require_once JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR.'/components/com_k2/models/categories.php';
$categoriesModel = K2Model::getInstance('Categories', 'K2Model');
//you can change the code here and put your category id
$categories = array_merge(
array('' => JText::_('JOPTION_SELECT_CATEGORY')), $categoriesModel->categoriesTree(NULL, true, false)
);
$this->k2category=JHTML::_('select.genericlist', $categories, 'k2_catid', 'class="inputbox"', 'value', 'text', $this->k2catid);
