I seem to be having a problem with using aliases |
| Message Text |
First I'd like to say that this is great script and I love tinkering with it 
I seem to be having a problem tho and I'll try to explain it as best as I can.
Anyway I have a number of categories and two or three subcategories in each and 1000's of links in each subcategory which I added using phpmyAdmin using the "Insert data from a textfile into table" tool that it has. I haven't added any links to the actual categories themselves and now that I have all my links in I realise that I would like the categories to display the contents of the subcategories .ie I'd like a Category named "Widgets" to display the links which are in the subcategories "Red Widgets" and "Blue Widgets".
I tried to use the "Advanced Options" tool to add aliases ie. "For all categories, set alias to 1 where the current id is 2". Where '1' is the main category and '2' is the subcategory.This makes the links in whichever subcategory disappear and I can't seem to get them to show again unless I delete the subcategory and recreate it and add the links in again.
Maybe I don't fully understand how to use aliases or I am missing something completely (wouldn't be the first time lol)
If anyone can shed some light on what I'm doing incorrectly and what I should be doing I would be grateful. |
