Hi,

I get a toplist showing data from a specified category, and now I want to hide this category from the public.

I tried hide the category option and/or removing the guest permission of viewing category, but this also disable the data of this category from guest view.

I also tried the if condition, but it doesn't work.
- <IF {CID} is 795>display categories</IF>

Any help?

Hide the category, and when generating your toplist specify to include hidden items.

I hide the category id 792 and tried the following toplist, but not working.

<CONFIG>links,rand(),5,descending,catid=792,0,0,1</CONFIG>

how to include items from hidden category?

Please use the toplist generator, it works when you use it. It gives me
<!-- BEGIN TOPLIST 5 -->
<CONFIG>links,rand(),5,descending,catid=8,,,0,1,0,0,0,0</CONFIG>
{LINKTITLE} - test <br>
<!-- END TOPLIST 5 -->
which indeed shows the links in my hidden category.
