I am creating a category filter. Categories have subcategories but every post in a subcategory also belongs in a main category. In the dropdown filter in a custom search filter I only want to show the top level categories, so no subcategories should be visible. Is it possible somehow to limit the depth?

Hi Wim,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

Unfortunately no its not possible to do this.

What I would recommend that you do is to open a feature request to get such a functionality added to the filter for the taxonomy.

Please let me know if this helps.

Thanks,

Hi Shane,

Really not possible? That is most unfortunately. I will see if I can hide them with some jQuery but maybe this might indeed be a nice feature to add? I you might have an idea for some jQuery to hide them, I would not say no to that 😉

Hi Wim,

There is a way to hide it but Its not practical if you have alot of options.

Take a look at the link below.

The simple jQuery script here is able to hide the options for you.

Thanks,
Shane
