Hikashop hidden category

    We are using Hikashop in conjunction with a 3rd party product (JEvents) to allow visitors to checkout through the Hikashop shopping cart.

    We have a dedicated category for all events for this component that we do not "Publish" to prevent visitors from accidentally discovering products from the front-end.

    However, we do wish to create coupons and gift certificates for Tickets in this category, but unless we publish the category, are unable to search/select its category or products.

    The temporary workaround is to publish the category for creating the coupons, etc., but in order to turn this operation over to clerical staff who won't have access to do this, this is not a good long-term solution.

    Is there any way to not hid unpublished categories from Hikashop in AWOCoupon Pro?

    Thanks

    Hello,

    Yes there is.

    Go to awocoupon->configuration. You will notice the url in the browser is:

    index.php?option=com_awocoupon&view=config

    Now at the end add this: &advanced=1, so it reads:

    index.php?option=com_awocoupon&view=config&advanced=1

    Then you will see an advanced tab, where you can set it to show unpublished categories.
