Multiple categories display was created by eastkilla

Hello,

I have create a K2 category menu. I would like to display articles from multiple categories. When I selected just 1 category, no problem, all articles of this category are displayed. But when I select more categories, I have bug, no one article is displayed. I don't understand why ?

My categories are organized like that :

- parent category
- child category 1
- child category 2
- child category 3
.....

I would like to display articles from all child categories.

Thanks for help.

Do you put the correct settings in the menu item of the multiple categories? They become editable once multiple categories are selected.

In your first screenshot, where the multiple categories are set, I see that there are no items set for your leading items. It is set to 0 with 1 column. Try to put a number to this option.

I would recommend to update your K2 version to 2.6.8 SVN from here: getk2.org/assets/get/ , since you are using J!3.2.1.

Make sure to take a backup first.

If your issue persists after the update, could you sent me access to your backend to check it out?
You can sent the info from our contact form here: getk2.org/contact-us

Thanks Yiota,

I think I have conflict with some extension. I have uninstalled Additional Categories for K2, and now i can select 2 categories without bug. When i select more, same issue.

When you say the same issue you mean that even with the Additional Categories extension disabled you still have issues when multiple categories are selected through the menu?

Maybe you need to ask for support on this from the developer of Additional Categories extension.
Either way, you will have to provide access to check on the issue.
Try to upload your site even in a testing environment.
