Hi, is there a way to filter multiples categories using only one entry, like MTEntries category filter. Something like it:

CODE

<MTIfCategory label="Blog OR Archive">
---- do something... -----
</MTIfCategory>

If this don't work, I know I'll have to use multiples instances of IfCategory... Is there a better way to achieve the same results for this?

Hi,

sorry for my english language.
My Idea:

CODE

<mt:IfArchiveTypeEnabled archive_type="Category">
<div class="widget-archive widget-archive-category widget">
    <h3 class="widget-header">Canali selezionati</h3>
    <div class="widget-content">

    <mt:TopLevelCategories>

<!—Codice per filtro categorie ->
<mt:SetVar name="IncludeCategory" value="false" />
<mt:IfCategory name="Cultura">
<mt:SetVar name="IncludeCategory" value="Cultura" />
</mt:IfCategory>
<mt:IfCategory name="Politica">
<mt:SetVar name="IncludeCategory" value="Politica" />
</mt:IfCategory>

<mt:If name="IncludeCategory" like="(Cultura|Politica)">

        <mt:SubCatIsFirst>
        <ul class="widget-list">
        </mt:SubCatIsFirst>
        <mt:IfNonZero tag="mt:CategoryCount">
            <li class="widget-list-item"><a href="<$mt:CategoryArchiveLink$>"<mt:IfNonEmpty tag="mt:CategoryDescription"> title="<$mt:CategoryDescription$>"</mt:IfNonEmpty>><$mt:CategoryLabel$> (<$mt:CategoryCount$>)</a>
        <mt:Else>
            <li class="widget-list-item"><$mt:CategoryLabel$>
        </mt:IfNonZero>
        <$mt:SubCatsRecurse$>
            </li>
        <mt:SubCatIsLast>
        </ul>
        </mt:SubCatIsLast>

</mt:If>

    </mt:TopLevelCategories>
    </div>
</div>
</mt:IfArchiveTypeEnabled>

It's good?

Ciao

Or change this

CODE

<!—Codice per filtro categorie ->
<mt:SetVar name="IncludeCategory" value="false" />
<mt:IfCategory name="Cultura">
<mt:SetVar name="IncludeCategory" value="Cultura" />
</mt:IfCategory>
<mt:IfCategory name="Politica">
<mt:SetVar name="IncludeCategory" value="Politica" />
</mt:IfCategory>

<mt:If name="IncludeCategory" like="(Cultura|Politica)">

with

CODE

<mt:SetVarBlock name="IncludeCategory"><$MTCategoryLabel$></mt:SetVarBlock>
<mt:If "$IncludeCategory" like="(Cultura|Teatro|Politica)">

ciao
