How do you start a new category if there isn't one which suits your discussion content

    Only admins can create new categories. Not sure if it's different for 0.9.3/1.0 but for 0.9.2.x it's done in the Settings -> Category Management section.

    speaking of which, are there any addons / extensions to like... break categories into groups?
  • MinisweeperMinisweeper New
    there is currently no extension for sub categories but it has been discussed a number of times.
  • jeffbaxjeffbax
    I don't mean sub categories, I just mean like dividers. The main category would just be text with forums under it, like phpBB, but not a sub forum of a category in which you can post in.

    eh?
  • FreedmanFreedman
    I think he means having subcategories, but no categories. What I mean by this is you would have:

    Help-
    --Tech help
    --Fishing help
    --Whistling help

    Fitness-
    --Lifting weights
    --Running
    --Misc. Cardio

    The "help" and "fitness" headings wouldn't mean anything, though. You couldn't post a message to "fitness." It would just be there to help make sense of the categories.

    Hmm...I like that idea. Has anyone thought of making that? (is it even possible?)

    So more like Titles and Categories. Could see it being a handy extension for some folks. Can't see it being a core function though.

    This is an excellent idea.
