 * Hi,
    is this possible to hide ’empty categories’ – I mean categories that do 
   not have any posts attached? I have a 3-level category tree. It would be cool
   if I could hide only the lowest level with no posts attached. Thank you. Domin

 * Sorry, No.
    CMW only works with the menu items themselves, not the content of
   the page that any of the menu items point to. CMW does not do any checking regarding
   the validity of the menu items – whether a page/post/category/tag exists, or 
   a category/tag has any relevant posts to display – it merely filters the menu
   items.
