Wordpress: exclude subcategories
If you are looking for a solution to exclude subcategories, here is a very simply way:
$categories= get_categories(); foreach ($categories as $cat) { if($cat->category_parent == 0){ DO WHATEVER YOU WANT TO DO } }
You could use this code to make a dropdown box without subcategories.
Here is the wordpress reference for “get_categories” with an example of a categories dropdown box.
