WP plugin: Kinderlose
- plugin:
- Kinderlose
- version:
- R1.0.1
- download:
- kinderlose.php
- source:
- kinderlose.php
Kinderlose is not just an unusually-named* WordPress 2.3 plugin, but one with a very simple mission (which is good, because it’s a very small plugin): It removes posts from any possible child categories under a (presumed parent) category archive.
Inspired by Michael D. “mdawaffe” Adams’ Just One Category and Rich Hamilton’s No SubCats plugins, Kinderlose came into being because there didn’t seem to be a similar solution supported under WordPress 2.3. Well, now there is.
Installation and use is simple: Download kinderlose.php, upload the file to your wp-content/plugins/ directory, and activate Kinderlose under Plugins. That’s it. Kinderlose will know what to do from there.
Note: Kinderlose for you non-German speakers out there (it’s ok, I barely speak it myself) means “childless” — which pretty much describes the purpose for the plugin, don’t you think? Hey, better than calling it Kindesmorde…

Agreed this is an awesome plugin!!
Just an update it works for WP 2.51! woot woot good stuff man.
I don’t usually leave comments but this plugin is so useful I had to say thanks. I’ve been searching for ages for a way to hide child posts, something I think wordpress should have as an option out of the box.
ps works on wp 2.6
Hello Kaf,
I’ve been reading webage and such written by you since I first started into the realm about 2 years ago now. Just wanted to let you know that ;-) and I am posting this in as akward and incorrect a spot as I could possibly have thought to, but, well, hell, I didn’t know where else to put it. I just happened to attempt, for the first time because it’s never been necessary, to use wp_list_pages twice in the same template (it is in the header as my navigation and I’m attempting now to put it on a page) and lo and behold, snafu. I googled to see if anyone else had this problem and came across some writings betwixt yourself, Laurel and others and there was a post mentioning this, along with your response. I was just curious if you had any idea if this just got swept under the carpet way back when, or if it was fixed and has reared it’s head again. I am on version 2.7 and experience the exact scenario outlined by the guy in this post … from 05. The post is about 3/4 of the way down the page —- http://codex.wordpress.org/Talk:Template_Tags/wp_list_pages . I thought you might find this interesting. Please feel free to email me back if you know what is keeping it from functioning in 2.7 as it’s a pretty vital necessity for me right now to have this secondary page listing ;-)
I tried to get it running for wordpress 2.9.2, but it does not work as expected. I think it could be something with the post revisions.
Btw: “kinderlose” is feminine, usually you just say “kinderlos”. But I agree it doesn’t sound that good if you try to pronounce it in an english way..
Ich habe lange nach einem solchen Plugin gesucht. Es lohnt sich wirklich hiermal öfter vorbeizuschauen. Viel Erfolg weiterhin!
I’m having trouble with my website since I upgraded to WordPress 3.1. Is it possible that your plug-in is not compatible with the new version?
Thanks
This great plug-in that plugs a big weakness in wordpress has finally stopped working in v3.1.2 which is a big shame; my websites look awful now.
I really hope that it gets fixed; I have not been able to find a replacement.
I figured out eventually that the field name had changed in v3.1; with Kaf’s update, everything looks great again!
Many thanks.
