Product Category Required is breaking after recent update.

[wwsAdmin]

Hello Team,

Product category is required and it was working pretty awesome till last few update.

I have added custom code shared by you to disable parent category selection :

function wcfm_pm_custom_script( $end_point ) {
		switch( $end_point ) {
			case 'wcfm-products-manage':
		?>
		<script>
			jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
				$('#product_cats_checklist').children('.product_cats_checklist_item').each(function() {
					//if( $(this).children('.product_taxonomy_sub_checklist').length > 0 ) {
						$(this).children('label').children('input').addClass('wcfm_custom_hide');
					// }
				});
				$( "#wp-excerpt-media-buttons" ).remove();
				$( "#wp-excerpt-editor-tools" ).remove();
				$( "#wp-description-media-buttons" ).remove();
				$( "#wp-description-editor-tools" ).remove();
				//$('#product_cats_checklist').children('.product_cats_checklist_item.checklist_item_15').remove();
				
			});
		</script>
		<?php
			break;
		}
	}
	add_action( 'after_wcfm_load_views', 'wcfm_pm_custom_script' );

But now it is allowing product to be submitted without category selection. Not showing in err message.

Same goes for Excerpt and Description, while submitting it is not showing it is required.

Thanks,
Shubham

Hi,

Is this code written by us? I don’t think so!

Thank you

Hi,

I guess i copied from here : https://wclovers.com/forums/topic/completely-hide-restricted-categories-from-vendors-add-product-page/

Ahh … that code is almost 1 year old and no more valid for recent WCFM.

Between, what is your requirement.

I will give you updated code!

Thank You

[wwsAdmin]

Ohh..

Requirement is same.

Subcategories should be enabled or selected. Main categories cannot be selected by vendors.
I would like to prevent the vendor from choosing Main Category, forcing them to choose one or more of the subcategories instead

Thanks.

Hi,

Please add this CSS to your site for the purpose –

#wcfm-main-contentainer .product_cats_checklist_item input[type="checkbox"].wcfm-checkbox {display:none;}
 #wcfm-main-contentainer .product_cats_checklist_item .product_taxonomy_sub_checklist input[type="checkbox"].wcfm-checkbox {display:inline-block;}

Thank You

[wwsAdmin]
