HOW DO I...copy cats?
I have two categories that I would like to be the same and contain the same links/sub cats...

Computers/Computer Games

and

Games/Computer Games

Is there a way to just delete one and copy the other over...so when a user submits their link to Games/Computer Games, it appears in the same place at Comptuers/Computer Games?

Please help...In-Link had this feature. It seems like it would be a necessity for a Direcotry software?

Hi,

I would suggest using the related category feature.

Decide which category you want to use for Computer Games - settle on one of them only to accept submissions - and then move ALL the links to that category.

Once you've done that, make the other category relate to it, e.g.;

Actual links go in Games/Computer Games and then in the category Computers you put a related link called Computer Games that points to 'Games/Computer Games'. You'll then have:

Computers/Computer Games@ (No links - just repoints visitors to > Games/Computer Games)
Games/Computer Games (Has all the links)

Hope this helps.

All the best
