Categories #19

Noticed that when you pull the categories it doesn't show them if no entires are tied to them. Is there a way around this? I need it to show all categories even if it is empty.

Are you using exp:json:categories tag? or categories in exp:json:entries?

nate8684 commented 11 years ago

exp:json:entries tag... The trouble is that I need to access some of the entry information but still need the category even if it doesn't have an entry tied to it...thoughts?

I think you'll have to use the exp:channel:categories tag and build your own JSON output :/ This plugin does not deal with empty categories.
