If you would like to hide a category visually from your catalog, there is a workaround available utilizing custom CSS code. Please also know that this does not apply to mobile or TV apps.
Finding your Category ID
You'll need to have your category ID to implement this code. To find your category ID, simply go to your Uscreen Admin area and go to Content > Organize.
From there you will click edit on the category you wish to hide on your catalog.
Once you've clicked edit, simply look at the URL bar and grab the ID from the URL. The highlighted numbers are the Category ID.
Prepare the code
Get the category ID/s following the previous step. Replace the asterisks in the following code with your category ID/s.
To hide a single category
[data-category-id='****']
{ display: none; }
To hide multiple categories
[data-category-id='****'],
[data-category-id='*****'],
[data-category-id='*****']
{ display: none; }
This code can potentially hide three categories. If you need more, simply add more
[data-category-id='****'],
on the top
Be sure to replace the asterisk * with the category ID
Applying the code to your site
Next, you'll need to access the Code Snippets, particularly the Head Code.
Then paste the code provided above wrapped inside an HTML <style> tag, and replace *** with your category ID as shown here:
Double-check your IDs and make sure they are accurate. Ensure your code is valid and you did not add any extra spaces or lines of code.
Click Save Changes.
Now you'll notice that the specified category or categories are now hidden in your catalog.
NOTE: Code Snippet requires your account to be on the Uscreen Plus plan. If you're not currently on the Uscreen Plus plan, please get in touch with sales@uscreen.tv to upgrade.
This is a custom code suggestion and might not work in all cases, as this could be limited by the existing customizations applied to your page.
