    Hi there Murali, I have installed the plugin but it is not working correctly. Can you help me to get it to run?

    Problem 1: The option to upload an icon is not working except on one random custom taxonomy out of a few dozen. It is not there on the standard wp posts either. I tried creating a new category to see if it would pick it up but no luck. The custom taxonomy it does work on is not the first either alphabetically or date created – I’ve checked all the settings against the others that don’t work and there is no difference. It’s just one random one!
    Problem 2: When I set up the widget, I click off the count and show empty cats options and save but as soon as I do the settings revert.

    I have removed any old plugins that added category images or affected thumbs in any way. I’ve turned off most plugins, especially those affecting categories and images except what is essential for the site. I think it’s at WordPress level, probably recent version rather than plugin or theme.
    I would love to make this work. I need a display of categories for a custom post type with individual icons (they are property features on a rentals site).

    I’ve cleaned cache and database thoroughly.
    Happy to supply a login if you can help. Hope we can resolve, I don’t think anyone else provides this feature.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    I think for custom taxonomies it needs to be added I will add it in this week’s release. I will update you

    Really grateful Murali. I’m getting back on that site a bit later on today and I’ll report back to you if it worked. Thing is it IS working on just this one custom tax, but I am sure this will help. I’ll let you know as soon as I have 10 mins to run the update.

    Well the icons work fine now but I can’t get rid of the count. I looked at the CSS to see if I could hide it but it’s an integral part of the menu text. Also, unfortunately it doesn’t work for the purpose I need, which is just to show the categories of the post itself, not all the categories. Really I’m trying to use it as a features list drawing from the post’s categories. Thanks for updating it though. If you have any ideas how I could achieve that please let me know.

    Do you want to show categories list based on post id? I will try to enhance further with some more options.

    To hide count for every category disable show count in widget settings

    Trouble is, it’s a template (Elementor). I’d need to be able to set the ID dynamically from the post being displayed if that makes sense. Current post ID basically – could you do that?

    I disabled show count in the widget settings, it still reverts. does the count display part have a class or ID that I can target with CSS?

    Plugin Author Murali

    (@murali-indiacitys)

    I will try to include that option after analysis, using taxonomy arguments filter

    I think count is not disabling it might be due to cache for logged in users. In my demo site all settings are working fine enable/disable.

    or in category-list-widget.php after line 105 , add line $show_count = 0; it will disable the count

    So sorry Murali, I thought I replied, I must have not sent it. I disabled the count with your code, thank you very much.

    Do you think it might be possible to show the categories for the current post only? Is it something you can include in the plugin or is a custom job?

    Plugin Author Murali

    (@murali-indiacitys)

    Based on post id, we can get associated categories. If it is so then i can include that option, so that it will display categories based on postid for every post detail page. For the pages which are listing all post thumbnails, it will display only all categories.

    Since i am busy with my another plugin for push notification for post and Buddypress, i am replying to this late. If you need push notification for your site, please look into push notification plugin for post and BuddyPress (using Firebase), it can also be integrated with native/hybrid mobile apps (with/without webview) using rest api available in that push notification plugin, so that both website and mobile apps will be receive push notification when new/custom post type or BUddyPress activities are published, apart from this it has lot of other options also.

    Do you think you could make it so I can add it as a shortcode? That way I can call the post ID in the template and set the rest of the shortcode as before and after. I can make that work with Jet Engine/Elementor.
