Collapsing Categories

Collapsing Categories は、折り畳み式のカテゴリとサブカテゴリ一覧を作成できます。また、投稿一覧も作成可能です。ウィジェットとして利用するのが主ですが、テーマ内に手動でコードを入れて表示することもできます ( インストール説明を参照 ) 。

設定

Options can be set from the block panel. If you wish to insert the code into your theme manually instead of using a widget, you can use the following options. These options can be given to the collapsCat() function either as an array or in query style, in the same manner as the wp_list_categories function.

• inExclude
  • Whether to include or exclude certain categories
    • ‘exclude’ (default)
    • ‘include’
• inExcludeCats
  • The categories which should be included or excluded
• showPages
  • Whether or not to include pages as well as posts. Default if false
• linkToCat
  • 1 (true), clicking on a category title will link to the category archive (default)
  • 0 (false), clicking on a category title expands and collapses
• catSort
  • How to sort the categorys. Possible values:
    • ‘catName’ the title of the category (default)
    • ‘catId’ the Id of the category
    • ‘catSlug’ the url of the category
    • ‘catCount’ the number of posts in the category

    • ‘3’ images (you can upload your own if you wish)
    • ‘4’ custom symbols
• customExpand
  • If you have selected ‘4’ for the expand option, this character will be used to mark expandable link categories
• customCollapse
  • If you have selected ‘4’ for the expand option, this character will be used to mark collapsible link categories
• postTitleLength
  • Truncate post titles to this number of characters (default: 0 = don’t truncate)
• accordion
  • When set to true, expanding one category closes all others at that level
• catfeed
  • Whether to add a link to the rss feed for a category. Possible values:
    • ‘none’ (default)
    • ‘text’ shows RSS
    • ‘image’ shows an RSS icon

    • ‘category’ (default)
    • ‘link_category’
    • ‘post_tag’
    • ‘both’ (categories and tags)
    • any other registered taxononmy (e.g. recipe press uses recipe-categories)
• showPostDate
  • When true, show the date of each post
• postDateAppend
  • Show the date before or after the post title. Possible values:
    • ‘after’ (default)
    • ‘before’
• postDateFormat
  • What format the post date is in. This uses the standard php date formatting codes
• useCookies
  • When true, expanding and collapsing of categories is remembered for each visitor. When false, categories are always display collapsed (unless explicitly set to auto-expand). Possible values:
    • 1 (true) (default)
    • 0 (false)
• showTopLevel
  • When set to false, the top level category will not be shown. This could be useful if you only want to show subcategories from one particular top-level category
    • 1 (true) (default)
    • 0 (false)
• postsBeforeCats
  • When set to true, posts in category X will be ordered before subcategories of category X
    • 1 (true)
    • 0 (false) (default)
• expandCatPost
  • When set to true, any category to which a post is assigned will automatically be expanded on a single post page.
    • 1 (true) (default)
    • 0 (false)
• showEmptyCat
  • When set to true, empty categories are shown
    • 0 (false) (default)
    • 1 (true)
• debug
  • When set to true, extra debugging information will be displayed in the underlying code of your page (but not visible from the browser). Use this option if you are having problems

例

This will produce a list with: * categories shown in alphabetical order * using images to mark collapsing and expanding * exclude posts from the categories general and uncategorized

<?php echo '

‘ . “\n”; if (function_exists(‘collapsCat’)) { collapsCat(array( ‘postSort’ => ‘postDate’, ‘postSortOrder’ => ‘DESC’, ) ); } else { wp_get_categories(‘your_options_here’); } echo “

\n”; ?> `

デモ

I use this plugin in my blog at http://robfelty.com

CAVEAT

Currently this plugin relies on Javascript to expand and collapse the links. If a user’s browser doesn’t support javascript they won’t see the links to the posts, but the links to the categories will still work (which is the default behavior in wordpress anyways)
