Submission in Multiple Main Categories with one click!
Hello there !

I am sure Bobsie is going to write a note saying that this topic is already discussed earlier.

My question :

I know how Multicat functions with the help of $Altcat and the sub in %unique_cat. This allows multiple submission of the same URL in different categories.

In this above modification the pop-up is still shown only one Main pop-up bar in the catagoriy field.

What I would linke to do is the following :

- To define three seperate Main categories fields and also show three pop-ups seperate in the submission fields and also create three fields in the links.db! By on click one could submit to three different MAIN Categories or Multi-Categories. In this each one of the three selection one has to choose the respective sub-categories in all. Therefore a link is submitted in three main/sub-categories at a time.

Hi Bobsie!

You mentioned earlier in other message that one can make $Altcat1,$Altcat2,$Altcat3,$Altcat4....etc No problem. Does this mean that one could also create such pop-ups for each of this?

Thanks.

Now why would I say that? I don't care how many different messages there are on the same topic. I've never said that to anyone.

Are you saying I said that? I don't remember ever saying anything like that. Are you sure it was me? Maybe you are confusing me with someone else?

Hello Bobsie!

Excuse me.

It was loopy who mentioned about Altcat1, Altcat2, etc.

I had four browsers open then. I made a mistake in looking in the forum. I think there was a message of yours below or above it. So I wrote or quoted wrong.

Your name has been submitted in multiple categories (Expert/Important, etc) of the categories.db Of my head. Sometimes my intellet.db makes a mistake. I think it was the clever_html.pl that made a mistake in generating the header of the message above!!!

Thanks

Hello !

Someone wrote me an email but I would prefer to discuss in this forum as it may benefit others too.

What I really am looking for is :

Title : ____________________
URL : ____________________
Category 1 : ____________________/Sub-category/Sub-category/.......
Category 2 : ____________________/Sub-category/Sub-category/.......
Category 3 : ____________________/Sub-category/Sub-category/.......
: ____________________
: ____________________
: ____________________
: ____________________

This will have to be handles by category1.db, category2.db, category3.db!!!

Is there a way?

To create an extra field in the links.db is no problem. But how to handle these three Categories submissions?

Àny idea?

Thanks
