verbb / single-cat Goto Github PK

It would be much more user friendly if the category name was shown:

The built-in categories field shows the category names in this context.

Would you consider adding this for consistency with the built-in categories field?

I think one cool feature would be the option to target a parent category so that the dropdown displays all the children categories of that parent category.

What are you trying to do?

Hi, now that the entrification of categories etc. is taking place, a single relation plugin would be nice!

I kinda love the simplicity and I think even craft should do it like single cat if there's only one value that can be chosen.

What's your proposed solution?

single relation plugin, or single entry only, since all will be entries..

Hi @elivz

I'm using this in a matrix within a supertable and if I set the single category field to required and then choose the blank option it silently fails. I get an indication that the error is on that page and the matrix block has vanished.

Arguably now thinking about it further maybe the blank option is redundant given that that is what the required flag on the field does? Can you elaborate on the purpose of it?

After upgrading to Craft 3.1 the field now displays this error: This field is not set to a valid category group.

I get a Twig runtime error when trying to access an entry in the CP that's using this field. Here's the stacktrace.

Hi @elivz

I've just discovered that the categories are not pulling the dropdown values from the correct site:

Within SingleCatField.php around Line 123:

        $categories = Category::find()
            ->groupId($source['criteria']['groupId'])

Needs to be:

        $categories = Category::find()
            ->siteId($this->targetSiteId($element))
            ->groupId($source['criteria']['groupId'])

Is it possible you could patch this in?

I have a category group set up called "Product Types" with categories like Blu-ray, Book, etc. I created a new Single Cat field to pull from this group, but the dropdown is appearing empty when I try to use it in an entry. I also tried it with another category group and get the same results.

Describe the bug

Getting this error, and am unsure how to reproduce it. All I know is when I choose Single Cat as the field, in the CP I get this error:

craft\services\Structures::applyBranchLimitToElements(): Argument #2 ($branchLimit) must be of type int, null given, called in /srv/www/website.com/vendor/verbb/single-cat/src/fields/SingleCatField.php on line 63

Steps to reproduce

Unsure how to reproduce.

This is such a useful little plugin and I would love to bring it forward into my Craft 4 projects. Are there any plans to update it?

Would be cool if the order in the dropdown reflects a custom order. As of right now I don't know how they're currently being ordered.

Anything in the roadmap to have this be compatible with CraftQL?

Any interest in developing a custom plugin that presents categories from a category group as lightswitches?

Describe the bug

I select the Single Cat field type and the Category

Just regular use... matter of fact it was working until I've update Craft.
