Limiting taxonomy not working with filter menu #14

Closed asoretmadolell closed 9 years ago

asoretmadolell commented 9 years ago

Hello! I think I may have detected a bug, or at least something that I'm doing wrong.

Imagine that I have four categories in total and two shortcodes; one limiting categories 1 and 2, and the other one limiting the two remaining categories 3 and 4. The limiter works well when excluding posts, as those excluded posts won't show at all. However, the problem is that it won't hide the filter button of the categories selected to be limited.

For instance, if I limit categories 3 and 4, posts that belong to categories 3 and 4 won't appear, but the filter buttons for categories 3 and 4 will still show up, and obviously return empty results. And I'm guessing that's not the correct behaviour.

Incidentally, there are some times when a certain button won't show up at all, but I'm unable to even guess why that is.

I'm willing to grant access to any necessary information in order to address this problem!

Thank you in advance ;-)

You're correct, I just tested this and there's definitely something weird happening when you implement multiple loops as described. I had taken care of this issue in a v1.X release but I think something in v2+ might have broken my previous fix. This is going to take a bit of sorting but I include a patch for this bug in the next release. Thanks for reporting this!

Hello again... was able to sort out the issue quite quickly this AM. If you upgrade to v2.0.8 the bug should be fixed.

Hello again, Mandi. Will update and post feedback as soon as I can!

I just wanted to point out that I've payed for plugins who haven't even had the courtesy of getting back to me when I had a problem. This one, however, was fixed in less than 24 hours.

Would be happy to send a donation your way. Can you PM me with how to do so?

I don't have anything set up for donations at the moment, but thanks for the offer! Just happy to give something back to the WP community :)
