Unable to remove Currency and Product Categories on mobile - fix with jquery

[SVCode]

Despite having the correct hooks in place to remove the currency selector and product categories (six theme, standard cart, 7.2.3) they still showed up on mobile devices (but were removed on computers/desktops). Posting this here in case it helps others, bit of jquery to remove them using the ClientAreaFooterOutput hook. Has been raised with support as a potential bug.

 

<?php
function RemoveCurrency($vars)
{
$output .=  "<script type=\"text/javascript\">
			jQuery( \"select[name='currency']\" ).remove();
			</script>";

return $output;
}

add_hook("ClientAreaFooterOutput",1,"RemoveCurrency");

 

<?php
function RemoveProduct($vars)
{
       $output .=  "<script type=\"text/javascript\">
                              jQuery('optgroup[label=\"Product Categories\"]').remove();
                               </script>";

       return $output;
}

add_hook("ClientAreaFooterOutput",1,"RemoveProduct");

This is what I've been looking for... although I'm not 100% sure where it goes. Can someone shed some light on this? looked for 'ClientAreaFooterOutput'

Thanks in advance!

it's a hook, so you would upload it to the /includes/hooks folder of your WHMCS, give it a .php filename and it should work on next page refresh.

Thanks brian! Makes sense now.
