# [Plugin: Dynamic Widgets] Maximum link categories?

 * When I add a “link” to a widget area, the drop-down menu only lets me pick from
   the first 9 link categories: “All Links” plus 8 more.
 * I have more than 9 link categories. Is it possible to display more than 9 in 
   the drop-down?
 * Here’s a screencap: [http://renemichaels.com/images/screencap-1.jpg](http://renemichaels.com/images/screencap-1.jpg)

 * I’m sorry, Dynamic Widgets does not alter something within a widget. It only 
   shows or hides widgets based on the (conditional) rules you have set.
 * In this case -without actually looking into it- it would probably mean an expanding
   in the capabilities of the widget itself. I do provide such services on a commercial
   base.

 * I’m not sure you understood my issue. Your widget is only displaying 9 link categories
   in the dynamic widget drop-down. I have more than 9 link categories that I need
   dynamic widgets for.
 * There are no conditional rules that limit the number of link categories displayed
   so why do I not see the rest?
 * Does your widget limit the number of link categories to 9?

 * I figured out the problem! The other link categories were not showing up because
   I had the link categories created but did not actually have any links assigned
   to them. Once I added links into each link category, they all showed up in the
   drop-down!
 * Pardon my ignorance, your widget works fine! 🙂
