Will there be a J4 compatible version.

I use this on our J3 site and I am building the J4 replacement.

Hi, I am now working on new Phoca Documentation. But it will be not a component, but template override for com_content (because of problems with different links).

So I hope I will finish it soon. There will be some limits like it will be not instalable like component (overrides just need to be copied to template and media folder), the options will be set in code (as overrides have no options), etc. But the main advantage will be the menu link which will be not changed when going from category view to article.

I am currently setting-up Documentation for the first time.
I am running Joomla 4.3.2
Trying to wrap my head around the structure and some things are working for me.
In the Module "Phoca Documentation Category Module" I have tried placing the names of the Article Categories I wish to Exclude and it produces a 404 on my Documentation page i have set-up.
Is there a particular way I should be doing this? Right now it has all of my Categories listed and I just want my Documentation Category from Articles.
Thanks,
Nerdy

Hi,

Don't try to hide the title of categories but the ID's of the categories.
If this categories have subcategories it's enough to hide the parent category.

Thank you so much. I did not find that in the documentation for this set-up. It works very well!
I appreciate your quick response.
Now I just want it to look more like the Documentation on the Phoca site!!
