GetAllowedCategoriesViewHelper

Ok, following scenario: You have an events2 Plugin where you have selected the categories house and tree. Further you have an event which is assigned to the categories performance, cinema and tree. Of cause this event will be shown in Frontend, because category tree matches.

BUT: If you want to show the first possible category in Frontend, it is possible that performance will be shown, which is not allowed by the Plugin.

This ViewHelper creates an intersection of both category selections which contains the allowed categories only.

Example

<f:for each="{e2:getAllowedCategories(event: event, pluginCategories: settings.categories)}" as="category" iteration="iterator">
  <f:if condition="{iterator.isFirst}">{category.title}</f:if>
</f:for>
