I have a custom view with search filters that display the taxonomy/categories in a dropdown: hidden link
The issue is that I need to remove one specific option from the dropdown. I am not sure how to achieve this.
This is unfortunately not possible in Taxonomies.
In Custom Fields, you can add manual options in this case.
If you edit the View, you can add this in the "Search and Pagination" editor you can insert the Taxonomy filter.
There, you will choose "Use manually entered values" and enter matching values/labels.
That means, currently we can:
- file a request to make it possible for taxonomies as well
- the current solution would be to use a Field instead.
I used the following JS script to manually hide the specific item from the dropdown instead.
<script>
jQuery(function($){
var arr=['name-of-slug-to-hide'];
$('select[name="wpv-category"] option').each(function(){
if(jQuery.inArray($(this).val(), arr)>=0){
$(this).hide();
}
});
})
</script>
