I tried to hide one category from all authors but it doesn't function. I set the read and write permission to administrator, but i always can see the category when i am not login as administrator. Is this a bug or what i do wrong?

Hi!
Where do you see the category?
Did you enable the option to "Apply ACL based checks" in your serendipity configuration to activate the permission system?

Hi,
If I click on the category I get the message "No entries". However, I would not to have the category any more in the Sidebar. Is it possible to hide the category?
Best Regards

Hi!
Where do you click on the category? In the sidebar of your blog? You need to use Serendipity 1.1-beta (maybe its also available in 1.0.1, i'm not fully sure) and configure the categories sidebar to use "logged in author" for the category listing to achieve that.
Best regards,

hi,
I am not sure whether I understand you correctly. Here is the link to the site:
http://www.astrologie-wochenhoroskope.de
I would like to hide only the category "Reisehoroskope" on the sidebar. It has read and writing rights only for Admin.

Hi!
You have removed the Serendipity-Creator notes from your RSS-Feed, are you aware of that? The BSD license does not allow for copyright removal, actually.
Having said that: Go and configure your "Categories" sidebar plugin, there's a dropdown that indicates for whom the category listing should be created. Change that dropdown to "Logged in author" (or something like that). Then the sidebar plugin will show you only the categories that you as a logged in (or logged out) user have read privileges for...
Best regards,

Thanks to for your tip. I have naturally added the Serendipity-Creator notes.
Because of the categories i have my solution.
I have created a second category block, pushed it after hidden column and fetched only the categories from admin.
So in the other block only the categories are indicated for all users.
Thanks for your fast help and patience.
