Whether or not you have a dropdown menu of all the categories depends on your setup, i.e. you can choose to have a dropdown menu or not (if you have a very large directory, it will take a while to load the dropdown menu). This is mainly for your users: if you do not have a dropdown menu, the users have to visit the category where they want to add a link, click on add, and the category will automatically be inserted. If you have a dropdown menu, the user can add the link to any category from anywhere. The setup is flexible and depends what you want....

I assume you wanted to add your link using the "Database" menu in the admin area. A better place to add your link would be the "Browse" menu. You can easily navigate your categories and links, and when you add a link to a category, the category id will automatically be inserted.

The category table is set up exactly as you wish, i.e. not flat at all. There are fields for ID, Name, and FatherID.

Have a look again. Smile
