Answer 3

The plugin doesn't seem to work for me... Do you have any ideas?

Comments

first: enable this plugin in admin page [plugin]
second:add widget "category anywhere" in admin page [layout]

---

Thank you so much! I indeed haven't added the widget in admin page. And now it works.

But I have a question. Did you work on design only for Snow Flat theme? Would you like to make it for Donut theme too? That would be just great! :)

---

I did a test on dounut theme , the plug in work like the answer i replay, it is not like the snow flat as this plug in used the theme css, an not define itself

Yes, it works just fine, thank you. zhao! :) I was asking if you want to adapt this widget css to also look pretty at Donut theme :)

---

Not in schedule,because :1. I think the theme css has consider it, if I Do a another job it is conflic and not suitable. 2.I can not adapt for all themes

That is SO COOL!!! THANK YOU so much man!!! I love you

---

Thanks , now it is so perfect.It works for me when I write category names.
There is a issue like this if you have hidden category i t shows it and if there is "Allow questions with no category" allowed, it shows it empty small box

---

1:Is hide category set by plugin or by admin permission?
If by another plugin ,I think you should also exclude the category in my plugin parameter, If you use admin permission I think I can FIX it in the next version
2:Do you mean do not show the category which is none questions? can you provide me a pic or your site url?

---

1-Hide category set by admin permission on admin center/ categories .
2-Also in same section when we check option of "Allow questions with no category" ,  in menu it show emty because there is no name for category.

---

I can't reproduce this issue,can you show me a picture or url
