    One Solution for Displaying Categories with No Ads

    I've read the some of the posts discussing changes to the code in the index.php file so that even the categories with no ads in them will show. I made the recommended code changes but nothing worked. I know you can get the categories to display by using a dummy ad entry, but I didn't want to do that.

    However, when I changed part of the code which was initially "hide_empty=true" to "hide_empty=0" I was able to get the result I wanted.

    Just wanted to share.

    This works great, and if you incorporate the plugin Category Order it allows you to change what order they display instead of the default by Name.
