Description[edit]

Provides an overview of the User Note Categories available on a Joomla site. The screen is used to find, add, edit and delete User Note Categories.


How to Access[edit]

  • Select Users  User Note Categories from the dropdown menu of the Administrator Panel.


Screenshot[edit]

Column Headers[edit]

In the table containing categories these are the different columns as shown below. Click on the column heading to sort the list by that column's value.

Help30-users-notes-categories-columns-en.png
  • Ordering. Up-Down ArrowsHelp30-Ordering-colheader-icon.png. User specified ordering, default is order of categories creation. When active, drag and drop ordering by 'click and hold' on the bars iconHelp30-Ordering-colheader-grab-bar-icon.png then 'release' in desired position.
  • Checkbox. Check this box to select one or more categories. To select all categories, check the box in the column heading.
    Note: Many toolbar actions can work with multiple categories.
  • Status. Published Help30-Article-status-featured-published-feature-manager-en.png or Unpublished Help30-Article-status-not-published-feature-manager-en.png categories are shown. Click on the green check mark or the red circle in the Status column to toggle between Published and Unpublished.
  • Title. The name of the category. You can open the category for editing by clicking on the Title.
  • Language. Category's language. If you are not using the multi-language feature of Joomla, default is 'All'.
  • ID. This is a unique identification number for this category assigned automatically by Joomla. It is used to identify the category internally, and you cannot change this number.

Column Filters[edit]

Above the column headers on the right, there are 2 dropdown input fields, Sort Table By: (preset to 'Ordering ascending') and a number (preset to '20') to display.

Help30-colheader-Column-filter-order-ascend-number-en.png

These column sorting input fields shows the current method of sorting applied to the table. Use the dropdown field choices and click the column heading name. Alternatively, click on the column heading to sort the list by that column's value.

This will also change the value in the drop field to correspond with the column header name. The list will then be sorted in order by that column and a sort icon (up or down arrow) will show next to the column name. Click a second time to reverse the sort, which will change the corresponding drop field.

  • Ordering ascending (default). Shows ordering of selected column, ascending or descending.
  • Number of categories to display. Shows the number of categories to display on one page, default is 20 categories. If there are more categories than this number, you can use the page navigation buttons to navigate between pages.


List Filters[edit]

The List Filters are a series of controls that let you limit what categories show in the screen. More than one filter may be entered. In this case, only categories that meet all of the filter conditions will show on the list.

Filter by Partial Title or ID

In the upper left is a search field and 2 buttons.

Help30-colheader-filter-field-en.png

  • To filter by ID number, enter "id:xx", where "xx" is the ID number (for example, "id:29").
  • Click 'Clear' to clear the Filter field and restore the list to its unfiltered state.

The functions are:

  • New. Opens the editing screen to create a new user notes category.

  • Publish. Makes the selected user notes category available to administrators of your website.
  • Unpublish. Makes the selected user notes category unavailable to administrators of your website.
  • Archive. Changes the status of the selected categories to indicate that they are archived. Archived categories can be moved back to the published or unpublished state by selecting "Archived" in the Select Status filter and changing the status of the categories to Published or Unpublished as preferred.
  • Check-in. Checks-in the selected categories. Works with one or multiple categories selected.
  • Batch. Batch processes the selected categories. Works with one or multiple items selected.
  • Rebuild. Reconstructs and refreshes the relevant table. Normally, you do not need to rebuild this table. This function is provided in case the data in the table becomes corrupted.
  • Trash. Changes the status of the selected categories to indicate that they are trashed. Trashed categories can still be recovered by selecting 'Trashed' in the 'Select Status' filter and changing the status of the categories to Published or Unpublished as preferred. To permanently delete trashed categories, select 'Trashed' in the 'Select Status' filter, select the categories to be permanently deleted, then click the 'Empty Trash' toolbar icon.
  • Help. Opens this help screen.
  • Options. Opens the Options window where settings such as default parameters can be edited.

Batch Process[edit]

The Batch Process allows a change in settings for a group of selected categories marked with a check-mark in the corresponding check-mark boxes. To use: select one or more categories form the table of categories being viewed and click on the 'Batch' Toolbar button. This will open a pop up window as shown below.

Help30-colheader-batch-process-categories-en.png

You can change one value or all values at one time.

How to Batch Process a group of categories:

  1. Select one or more categories on the list by selecting the desired checkbox(es).
  2. Click the 'Batch' Toolbar button.
  3. Set one or more of the following values:
  • To change the Language, select the desired language from the Set Language list box.
  • To change the Access Levels, select the desired new access level from the Set Access Level list box.
  • To change the Category, select a category.
    • To copy the categories to a different category, select the desired category from the category list box and check the Copy option.
      In this case, the original categories are unchanged and the copies are assigned to the new category and, if selected, the new language, access level and tag.
      Note: Changes you have selected from language, access level and tag will be applied to the copies, not the original.
    • To move the categories to a different category, select the desired category from the category list box and check the Move option.
      In this case, the original categories will be moved to a new category and, if selected, be assigned the new language, access level and tag.
  • To add a Tag, select the desired tag from the Add Tag list box.

When all of the settings are entered, click on Process to perform the changes. A message "Batch process completed successfully." will show. Note: Nothing will happen if you don't have any categories selected.

If you wish to clear your entered selections, click on the 'Cancel' button. Note: This does not uncheck the check boxes for the categories.


Quick Tips[edit]

  • To permanently delete categories:
    1. Change the status of the categories to Trashed.
    2. Change the Status filter to Trashed. At this point the trashed categories will show and the Empty trash button Help screen toolbar icon Empty Trash.png will show in the toolbar.
    3. Select the desired trashed categories and click on Empty trash in the toolbar. The categories will be permanently deleted.
