well, to include subcategories is a work to implement in Content. In News, you can check the pnuser.php file, from line 302 to 312.
Hmm, so I probably can put this in myself, I suppose... But shouldn't something like this be generally available? I really like the category concept, mainly for the reason that it allows to assign a membership in multiple categories, not just one topic as in
PN.
For the same reason I also like the idea of subcategories. But I get the feeling that categories are not yet used to the extent they could serve. Couldn't such filtering code perhaps be put into a hook, so it does not need to be implemented into every module? Just a thought...
To filter more than one category is an issue that can be implemented with a new parameter like: func=list&cats=cid1:cid2:...:cidn and loop them... a little heavy IMHO
So, this is not (yet?) possible? I wouldn't need to go through dozens of categories, but being able to list content of two or three major categories (preferably with subcategories included) would be nice indeed. I guess I have to file a feature request then...
At least I know now how things are standing. Thanks for the clarification, Mateo!
