Re: lam_browse_by (browse by category of articles/images/files in backend)
Dude!
Simple, very useful plug in.
Used to frustrate me how you couldn’t do this, though I didn’t fully understand why I was frustrated until I see, now, how the interface can be managed differently.

Re: lam_browse_by (browse by category of articles/images/files in backend)
Steve,
could the plugin be modified to display its Browse by selects inline with the built-in search form and not stacked vertically?
I tried to modify the plugin’s code and added some css, but the best I could achieve was both selects aligning to the left of the window but still underneath the standard search form.
To clarify, this is what I’ve tried…
in the plugins code:
$(".search-form").after(\'<span class="lamform">'.trim($lam_browse_by_form).'</span>\');';
and the css:
span.lamform form {
display: inline;
}
Cheers Martin

Apparently none of Steve’s plugins are available any longer – I wonder what’s up with that.

Re: lam_browse_by (browse by category of articles/images/files in backend)
Is there a way to have the section and category lists side by side horizontally instead of vertically beneath each other?

See my earlier post
I’m afraid Steve has abandoned his plugins.

Re: lam_browse_by (browse by category of articles/images/files in backend)
Martin, not sure if he’s abandoned them, however, he’s not been around (here or at xpattern) since late March, which is unusual as he is a profilic poster. Hope he’s simply enjoying himself on a sunny island somewhere. At any rate, Steve’s plugins seem to be back online.

Re: lam_browse_by (browse by category of articles/images/files in backend)
I love this plugin but have two problems.
The images dropdown doesn’t display with jbx_multiple_image_upload active.
And it would be good to use category titles instead of names as i often put numbers and stuff in the names to sort them.
Any chance of fixes?
