Hello,
I am currently setting up a Totara platform. We have a wide range of categories and audience types. Is there a way to
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Peter,
At this stage there isn't the ability to hide an entire category based on the audience, within the course catalogue, other than limiting visibility for all courses within the category. There is a ticket for this enhancement (TL-5615) to add support for audience visibility setting for categories. I'm afraid I don't have a timeframe for implementation at this stage, but you can check in with your partner for any updates.
As workaround in the meantime, you can create a custom role/access right, assign that role to members of an audience (via the Audiences editing area) and allow that role the ability to view that hidden category (within that category context)
Regarding your question regarding displaying
filters depending on the category chosen - could I confirm, do you mean within the course catalogue?
Many thanks,
Meredith
PS - Please see Roles Help Documentation for information about creating and assigning custom roles
Thanks Meredith, I appreciate you response. It's very helpful.
Regarding the Filters being displayed. Yes this is in the course catalogue. Some filters will only be required depending on the category selected, they will be irrelevant and potentially misleading in some categories. Its a Custom Field Filter
Hi Peter,
Thanks for replying so quickly. I'm afraid there's not currently a way to limit the visibility of different Filters by audience, however I've had a couple of partners ask exactly the same question recently so there is also a ticket for this item (TL-22245).
Best wishes
Meredith
Thanks again Meredith - you help is really appreciated
Hi Meredith,
The hiding of the category worked really well - thanks again for the tip. Can you tell me if there is a way to hide a sub-category? Currently I cant see the show/hide icon - I'm wondering if there is a setting somewhere that provides this?
