Query to create a category page?

Hi Perch, 

There's no easy or supported way.  Here's a hacky way: 

  // force update of category metadata for sorting (this may need to be updated in a much future version)
  $categoryTablename = 'category';
  $GLOBALS['escapedTableName'] = mysql_escape( $TABLE_PREFIX . $categoryTablename );
  $GLOBALS['schema']           = loadSchema($categoryTablename); // fake currently loaded schema
  if (!$GLOBALS['schema']) { die("Invalid table name '" .htmlencode($categoryTablename). "'"); }
  include_once(SCRIPT_DIR . '/lib/menus/default/common.php'); // load category menu functions 
  updateCategoryMetadata();

Let me know if that works for you.  

Hi, Dave -

Thanks. This appears to work better than I had hoped for.

I now need to take this on to the next logical step... uploads!

Claire, you helped me with the AJAX which I'm using to send the data to the query. Would you be able/willing to help me to add uploading capability if I put in a priority consulting request?

Thanks,

Perch

Of course - just email consulting@interactivetools.com. I'll pick it up as soon as I see it.
