find a piece that looks like this in your skins _main.php :-

	<?php
		// -------------------------- CATEGORIES INCLUDED HERE -----------------------------
		// Call the Categories plugin:
		$Plugins->call_by_code( 'evo_Cats', array(	// Add parameters below:
				'option_all' => 'ALL (Newest->Oldest)',
			) );
		// -------------------------------- END OF CATEGORIES ----------------------------------
	?>

and change it to look like this :-

	<?php
		// -------------------------- CATEGORIES INCLUDED HERE -----------------------------
		// Call the Categories plugin:
		$Plugins->call_by_code( 'evo_Cats', array(	// Add parameters below:
				'option_all' => 'ALL (Newest->Oldest)',
				'form' => true,
			) );
		// -------------------------------- END OF CATEGORIES ----------------------------------
	?>

THANK YOU M8! :D

THANK YOU VERY MUCH! :D

In my case it does not work. The checkboxes do appear, but there is no "Get Selection" button. Has something changed in later versions? (I use 1.10.2 Florida)?

If you are interested in this topic, do look at my post in [url=http://forums.b2evolution.net//viewtopic.php?p=58257#58257]this topic[/url] as well.

Regarding the form, I am experiencing the same behaviour. As soon as I find out more, I will report back to this topic.

Good luck

Thanks for your rely. I hope we'll get that fixed. But the "Get Selection" - button does appear on the skin blog http://skins.b2evolution.net/ so there must be a solution

I have the hack.

This is tested in B2evo 1.10.2. If you haven't got that version already, do [url=http://b2evolution.net/news/2007/08/05/1_10_upgrade_now]upgrade[/url] today.

Open ../blogs/plugins/_categories.plugin.php and add after (line 150):

echo $params['title'];

this:

/* Add Missing SubmitButton hack by Afwas */	
		if ( $params['form'] )
		{
			global $Blog;
			$bblogUrl = $Blog->dget( 'blogurl', 'raw' );
			echo'<form action="'.$bblogUrl.'" method="get">';
		}
/* End start <form> */

Add after (approx line 246):

) echo 'checked="checked" '?> />
				<label for="catALL"><?php echo T_('ALL') ?></label>
			</span>

this:

<!-- Second part of Add Missing SubmitButton hack by Afwas -->
		<br /><br />
		<input name="submit" class="submit" value="Get selection" type="submit">
		</form>
<!-- End hack by Afwas -->

or download the zipfile and replace the whole file (do make a backup of the old one).

It works on my blog. Do report any odd behaviour.

Good luck

Thanks! Now there is a Get Selection button, but it sends me to the wrong URL - the directory name of the chosen skin appears in the URL

Something is wrong. As soon as I figured it out, I am back at this topic.

*edit*
The version that's up for download should work

Yes, I have

Thanks! Now it works!
