have a link in 2 or more categories
Is there a feild I can add to the links admin so I can have a link appear in 2 or more categories

Say Link A belongs to Category 1 but is suitable to Category 2
I do not want to have Link A have more than 1 ID so I want to put it in both categories so I can track it with just one ID.



What about a sub category also appearing in 2 or more main categories?

Hi,

You need to press "Ctrl", and then select the categories (via your mouse) you want (via Database > Links > Add/Modify).

Hope that helps :)

Cheers

It worked so well for the links but what if I want the subcategory to belong to 2 or more main categories
When adding categories it is a drop down menu instead of a select text area

<G> Thats not quite so easy. Personally, I'd just use "related" categories (show up as @), rather than making dupe's of the categories, which can get confusing/messy :(

Hi,

I believe you have to do it through browser.cgi :( ("Browse" in the admin panel).
