Circumstances when to Display Categories

For OPS 3.3.0.10, is there a way to hide to automatically hide the categories in the browse block if there are no preprints posted in that category? Also, how can we show the number of preprints posted in a category next to the category name in browse block? For example, "Biology (3)" where the category name only shows when there are at least 1 preprint posted in it, and in the parenthesis it will display the number of preprints. This will help the readers to not browse categories which have 0 items posted. It is an issue for us since we have around 10 categories to choose from for the submitting authors at the time of submission.

Thank you!

Block links redirect and Highlight Issue in OPS 3.3

I use OPS 3.3.0.10 and faced the issue where the hyperlinks for categories in the browse block does not redirect correctly.

I changed the word "catalog" to "preprints" in browse/templates/block.tpl on line 29 and it worked:
<a href="{url router=\PKP\core\PKPApplication::ROUTE_PAGE page="**catalog**" op="category" path=$browseCategory->getPath()|escape}">

Another issue with category highlight when after clicking a category in the browse block after opening the page. I changed the word "catalog" to "preprints" again in browse/browseBlockPlugin.php file on line 55 and it fixed it:
if ($router->getRequestedPage($request) . '/' . $router->getRequestedOp($request) == '**catalog**/category') {

I still cannot figure out where do I see a page/link with the list of all categories only on one page. Please let me know if you can help!
