unlink 'category' in ZT2

zentoolsIf you use Zentools please post a review at the Joomla! Extensions Directory.

I'm looking to make the category label in the zt module 'unlinked' - just use as a static label. What's the trick? There's no option in the module setting. (this page will get a masonry filter.)

ZT 232

hmmm

and you need to check the category in the drag and drop section e.g. you don't want to remove the category text but don't want the link?

exactly - i want to keep the category label but disable the link. for categories, there is no option regarding the link in the drag and drop configurator in ZT2, as there is in some of the other options such as image and title.

Hi David,

You'd need to create a template override to remove the link from the category.

Copy the file
/modules/mod_zentools2/tmpl/elements/category.php
to your template folder
/html/mod_zentools2/elements/category.php

And then open up the file to remove the link around the text:
<div class="zt-category zt-element zt-<?php echo $element->display;?> zt-element-<?php echo $settings->count;?> zt-<?php echo $element->alignment;?> <?php echo $responsive_class;?>">
	<?php echo $element->pretext;?>
  <?php echo $item->category;?>
</div>

worked as advertised.

ZT2 feature idea: swap out default joomla category layout (one of the few things joomla is truly awful at) and replace with the ability to go to a page with a ZT2 category module.

Thanks for the update

It would need to be a component for something along these lines so it wouldn't be possible

We may look at turning zentools2 into a component but this is still under discussion
