wp_list_categories exclude all child categories

Hi

I would like to exclude from my menus all child categories from a particular parent.

Parent category has ID 111. I do not want to enter all ID of all child categories, so I would somehow like to set exclude all child of 111.

Can you maybe help me please?

Thank you in advance!

Edit: I think I might be in the right way. This is what I have so far:

<?php 
	 		echo " <ul id='nav'>";	
			$ex_catIdArr = get_categories('child_of=111');
			$catIdArr = array();
			foreach($ex_catIdArr as $ex_catIdArrObj)
			{
				$catIdArr[] = $ex_catIdArrObj->term_id;
			}
			$includeCats = implode(',',$catIdArr);
			wp_list_categories('orderby=order&title_li=&exclude='.$includeCats);
		?>

Code (markup):

The only problem is, that get_categories('child_of=111') does not get me all childs... Code works if I set include=111, but it the excluded only 111 in the list.

 

I tried to find something for you, but my bad luch didn't got anything. I guess you will have to put all id's manually

 

$categories= get_categories('child_of=10');

works fine for me ? can u please check issue is in your lop

 

This is not happening inside loop. I managed to solve the problem.

the code in my first post actually works! The problem was, that I was importing categories manually and somehow connection from wp to database was not "refreshed" or something. So all I had to do it add one category through wp-admin, then deleted it as I didn't need it, and code above worked...
