    I hate to knock buddyboss support but they are severly slow in responding to help requests.. perhaps since this is a general wordpress option one of you wonderful experts could assist with what i believe is a simple fix?

    I added all my parent categories and sub categories in the appropriate area for the marketplace theme… i added marketpanel widget to the appropriate area.. the theme by default is set to hide empty categories.. which obviously when you visit my site my menu will come up empty because nobody has listed yet…

    All im trying to accomplish is “display empty categories” this is the response from buddyboss which isnt working

    ollow these steps/instruction to make empty categories visible in marketplace menu.

    1. Add this code in your theme’s functions.php: https://codeshare.io/iLZsZ

    2. Open and edit file at path: /plugins/buddyboss-marketplace/includes/widgets.php

    3. Now replace code block between line #354 to #363 with this: https://codeshare.io/jgq7k

    Code block between line #354 to #363 should be like this:
    wp_list_categories(array(
    ‘title_li’ => ”,
    ‘show_option_none’ => ”,
    ‘child_of’ => $category->term_id,
    ‘include’ => $categories,
    ‘pad_counts’ => 1,
    ‘taxonomy’ => ‘product_cat’,
    ‘current_category’ => ( $this->current_cat ) ? $this->current_cat->term_id : ”,
    ‘current_category_ancestors’ => $this->cat_ancestors
    ));

    The functions.php input goes fine until i go to edit the widgets.php part.. no matter what way i put it in it breaks my site and i need to overwrite the widgets.php file with a backup i luckily made…… any suggestions? or an easier solution? I know buddyboss should be handling this, but their response time has been 30 hours plus.. Thank you

    I’m sorry their response time sucks. But this isnt code that is ours and we have no idea. I can only pay our staff to answer WC Vendors related questions.

    For what its worth, I took 15 minutes after my reply to fiddle with the code there. It’s just too hard to figure out what it’s there for and what each piece needs to do. Godspeed! 🙂

    BuddyBoss I use on another site. It was a pain to get that site the way it is. Look on Fiverr for WebDev08 he knows it from a year’s worth of helping me on issues. He has also been a big help with what I’m currently working on, requiring multi-vendor marketplace.

    He’s fast and fair, does take weekends off, so make sure to ask what time frame would be to look at what you’re doing.

    I trust him with my babies (companies). That is a hard thing for any founder to find.

    Best of luck.
