  I would like to suppress a Cat Item with all its subnodes in the sidebar.

  In the CSS I added:
  .cat-item-23953877 {
  visibility:hidden;
  }

  Then – the Cat Item indeed is hidden, but its space isnt ‘freed’.
  So, instead of the Cat Item, a large piece of space is shown in the sidebar, before other widgets follow below.

  Anyone with a better idea ?

  visibility:hidden
  hides the element, but it still takes up space in the layout.

  display:none
  removes the element completely from the document. It does not take up any space, even though the HTML for it is still in the source code.
