Mutiple Category Problem Fix/Solution (recommend changing)

[azn_romeo_4u]

1. Open the file inc/show.news.php
2. Find the line 86 which looks like:
$where[] = 'category =~ %'.$single_cat.'%';

3. Replace the line with below line.
$where[] = "category REGEXP ^$single_cat\$|^$single_cat,|,$single_cat,|,$single_cat\$";

If you have the problem, I recommend making the changes. Or you can use ramon's solution. http://forums.cutenewsru.com/multiple-c ... t2614.html I have 115+ categories as of today and i had stuff going into other categories like crazy but with the fix, it's all good.

I had a coder look into the problem for me. So credits to him.

after the modification - do we need to use it like this
'34|42|43';

of like before
'34,42,43';
????????

[Torstein]

no

[samiro]

what "no"

this :'34|42|43';
or '34,42,43'; ?

[Torstein]

No, you do not have to use '34|42|43'; syntax.

You just use the normal syntax '34,42,43';
