Hi,
i have 2 questions:
- how can can i hide the tags on items listing of a category? i put to hide on "Item view options in category listings" but still shows, or that only works for that category but not all subcategories?

- also how can i make the changes i want on category listings/layout for all categories? i want for example not to show tags, and not to show category and subcategories, just the items, where can i change that for all existing categories/subcategories? or do i have to edit each one individually?

- is there a way to do a word/letter limit to titles as well?

Thanks

You can create a dummy category and set it to hide tags, then select it in "Inherit parameter options from category" list of each category you want its items to hide tags, but this approache is complete inheritance, i.e all the dummy category settings will be applied to all other categories.

Another approache, if you are using the "Inherit parameter options from category" menu item type, where you can set the options to hides tags in items listed by this menu item.

If i create a dummy category and put all the parameters i want for, how do i then make all categories and subcategories inherit the parameters from that dummy category?

do i have to go to each one individually and make them inherit parameters from dummy category or is there a way to select all and make all inherit from the dummy? if its possible where is that option?

Thanks again for your time

I don't know how to set it for all categories as a batch, do you have many categories such that you can't set it individually?

I will try to find a way to set it directly in the database.

If you know how to use phpMyAdmin, given that you have not set the Inherit From option for any category, run this sql statement:

Take care to replace:
1- # with your database prefix
2- dummyCatid with your dummy category id.

Thanks :) ill give it a try
