On my controller I have a variable called 'name' => $child['name'], for my drop down menu.
The problem I am having is that in the child dropdown menu it still shows parent name.
I am trying to make it so if parent_id name is equal 0 then will not show in dropdown child links.
Why is it still showing parent name in dropdown child links

if ($category['top']) {
$children = $this->model_catalog_category->get_categories($category['category_id']);
foreach ($children as $child) {
// Level 2
$children_data[] = array(
'name' => $child['name'],
'href' => site_url('admin/test') .'/'. strtolower($category['name']) .'/'. strtolower($child['name'])

}

$data['categories'][] = array(
'name' => $category['name'],
'children' => $children_data,
'column' => $category['column'] ? $category['column'] : 1,
'href' => site_url('admin/test') .'/'. strtolower($category['name'])

}
public function get_categories($parent_id = 0) {
$this->db->where('parent_id', $parent_id);
$query = $this->db->get('category');
if ($query->num_rows() > 0) {
return $query->result_array();
} else {
return false;
