    Gantry Links Widget Not Showing Links by Category

    Posted 12 years 10 months ago
    • I've created some overrides for several pages and I want to show links only for a specified category on these pages. No matter what I always get all the links in all categories. Using the standard WP "Links" widget does work.

    • The website has 4 pages. A home page and then a page each for the type of work this individual has done- books, photography, and films. There are link categories setup for books, photography, and films with one or more links in each category. There is a custom override for each of the pages. The WP Links widget is setup to display only the links for the category for the page to which it is assigned. Book links on the book page, photo links on the photo page, and film links on the film page. The standard WP Links widget works but the Gantry Links widget does not. The Gantry Links widget will show all links on all pages no matter what the category setting is.

    • I setup the Gantry Links widget on the books page and it works there. However, if I use it on the other pages it will only show the books category of links no matter what I set the category to. I have the standard WP Links widget setup on the photos and films page. Give it a try.

      Thanks.

    • Sorry for the delay, that's unacceptable on my part.

      I tried it and things seem to work fine. I put two widgets on the front page in the sidebar and it worked like I believe it should.

      Attached are where I added the widgets to the home page and photography page, all three different categories.
