Multiple Categories per discussion?

edited August 2005 in Vanilla 1.0 Help

Does anyone else find themselves yearning to post a discussion under multiple categories? I guess having a feature like this would be similar to using tags to categorize discussions. Either way I think it would be an awesome feature to consider. Maybe? Maybe not?

Comments

  • This would only make sense if they were "shortcuts" to the original. Otherwise, it would make a mess of things and kill discussions. If someone could make it so that they were shortcuts to an original, that would be a really cool extension.
  • Although, the home page overview (discussions) kind of illuminates the need. I'm assuming you would only want to post in multiple categories to get attention, yes? Anyways, it would still be a cool extension.
  • I think what would best suit this is a category which bleeds all of it's discussions into all other categories on the forum. Otherwise discussions which admins can start that appear under both categories and within all discussions.
  • I guess I was had the tagging mentality when I thought of his idea. Now that I think of it, submitting dicussions to multiple categories would be redundant.
