Sorry to post here but couldn't find a place to ask a pre-sale question.

Does tree generated factor in viewer permissions?

I ask because I'm using this on a site with an extremely complex view/do permissions system (set via joomla ACL) and don't want to show a full tree of things that users are then told they don't have access to. Access denied can hurt feelings :). If they can't see it, they don't know they're not invited!

Can you please confirm that the generated tree takes into account user ACL settings?

Many thanks and nice job on a very clean looking module!

You welcome Toryalai :)

This module considers the ACL setup in K2 categories from the backend, this is because the module lists only K2 categories.

In addition to that, in the coming release, I will add a parameter to exclude specific categories, by category ids, from the tree, and this feature will be used independently from the ACL options.

Hope this answers your question :)

Sorry for the delay, the processing is out of my control.
