I need to remove from lines 1 to 197..then its just a matter of plugging in the options framework taxonomy stuff, as per the example:</p> <p><code><br /> of_get_option('example_select_categories'): category id = &lt;?php echo of_get_option('example_select_categories', 'no entry' ); ?&gt;<br /> </code></p> <p>So I think like here: <code>if (get_settings( $childvalue['id'] )</code> I need to replace "get_settings" with "of_get_option" and [id] with 'example_select_categories' (just leaving it as the example for now, will change once ive got this thing figured out.</p> <p>I'll keep trying to get this, but any help is appreciated ;) </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/featured-categorytheme-options-plugin#post-26539 Sun, 22 Apr 2012 13:14:07 +0000 helgatheviking 26539@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>honestly i have no idea how acamas is doing things. i'm not familiar with it at all. is it using the settings api? i'm doubtful, b/c thematic is only just getting to that.</p> <p>devin shows how to retrieve the saved option data... so wherever acamas is using the featured category ID, you'll need to serve it up in the options framework mode. </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/featured-categorytheme-options-plugin#post-26533 Sun, 22 Apr 2012 02:48:51 +0000 Jagst3r15 26533@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>wow that was stupid on my part. thanks :)...but now, how would I change the stuff in the acamas functions.php that has acms_featuredcategory or whatnot? just change the id "example_select_categories", to acms_featuredcategory? </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/featured-categorytheme-options-plugin#post-26532 Sun, 22 Apr 2012 02:41:27 +0000 helgatheviking 26532@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>you don't change anything to acms. have you read devin's instructions for how to implement his options panel? everything says $options b/c his plugin builds the options panel from that $options array. </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/featured-categorytheme-options-plugin#post-26531 Sun, 22 Apr 2012 02:16:13 +0000 Jagst3r15 26531@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>Sorry but my php skills are quite low :(...I assume I need to change this: </p> <p><code><br /> // Pull all the categories into an array<br /> $options_categories = array();<br /> $options_categories_obj = get_categories();<br /> foreach ($options_categories_obj as $category) {<br /> $options_categories[$category-&gt;cat_ID] = $category-&gt;cat_name;<br /> }</p> <p></code></p> <p>and this:</p> <p><code><br /> $options[] = array( "name" =&gt; "Select a Category",<br /> "desc" =&gt; "Passed an array of categories with cat_ID and cat_name",<br /> "id" =&gt; "example_select_categories",<br /> "type" =&gt; "select",<br /> "options" =&gt; $options_categories);<br /> </code></p> <p>Everything says "options" so I am not sure which words to change to "acms" (Acamas)..any help is appreciated :) </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/featured-categorytheme-options-plugin#post-26530 Sun, 22 Apr 2012 01:56:32 +0000 helgatheviking 26530@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>no it doesn't need to be filterable. in the SVN version the options are added to a hook. don't want them? remove them from the hook.</p> <p>the relevant function from extensions/theme-options.php</p> <pre><code>function thematic_opt_add_page() { $thematic_opt_page = add_theme_page (&#39;Theme Options&#39;, &#39;Theme Options&#39;, &#39;edit_theme_options&#39;, &#39;thematic_opt&#39;, &#39;thematic_do_opt_page&#39;); $thematic_opt_page = apply_filters (&#39;thematic_theme_add_opt_page&#39;, $thematic_opt_page ); if ( ! $thematic_opt_page ) { return; } add_action( &quot;load-$thematic_opt_page&quot;, &#39;thematic_opt_page_help&#39; ); } add_action( &#39;admin_menu&#39;, &#39;thematic_opt_add_page&#39; );</code></pre> <p>to remove the page:</p> <pre><code>function kia_remove_theme_options(){ remove_action( &#39;admin_menu&#39;, &#39;thematic_opt_add_page&#39; ); } add_action(&#39;init&#39;,&#39;kia_remove_theme_options&#39;);</code></pre> <p>also, i believe devin has an example in his plugin for how to make a dropdown list of categories. can you use that? </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/featured-categorytheme-options-plugin#post-26526 Sun, 22 Apr 2012 00:16:31 +0000 Jagst3r15 26526@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>Alright, so this is might be a little complex/off-topic, but any idea how I would move the Acamas featured category options to the options framework plugin? Bear in mind Devin updated his thematic options <a href="https://github.com/devinsays/thematic-options" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/devinsays/thematic-options</a> to use the plugin and therefore the settings api, so I think its a good idea to switch em over (plus I am working on a responsive version of the theme). I think I would have to add an array to the options.php file and then something else to either the functions.php file or the theme-functions.php file. Ive exhausted googling for the solution so hopefully someone can help.</p> <p>Also, I noticed that I cannot remove the thematic options for 0.9.8 (yes I know its a dev release, but it should be filterable regardless, shouldn't it?) </p>
