Adding multiple categories - uploading (frontend)

Hi,
Please submit ticket and send your site url with super admin account. I will check the issue and solve it for you.
Thanks
Dam

Unfortunately we are an intranet site and it cannot be accessed externally.

I found part of my editing issue - I had inserted additional lines in wrong place. Rectified this but still missing additional field in upload form. Code now looks like this:
if ($this->catId)
{
?>
<tr>
<td class="edocman_title_col">
<?php echo $this->form->getLabel('category_id'); ?>
</td>
<td class="edocman_field_cell">
<input type="hidden" name="jform[category_id]" value="<?php echo $this->catId; ?>" />
<?php echo $this->categoryTitle; ?>
</td>
</tr>
<?php
}
else
{
?>
<tr>
<td class="edocman_title_col">
<?php echo $this->form->getLabel('category_id'); ?>
</td>
<td class="edocman_field_cell">
<?php echo $this->form->getInput('category_id'); ?>
</td>
</tr>
<?php
}
?>
<tr>
<td class="key">
<?php echo $this->form->getLabel('extra_category_ids'); ?>
</td>
<td style="padding-bottom: 5px;">
<?php echo $this->form->getInput('extra_category_ids'); ?>
</td>
</tr>

Hi,
You need to upload your site into live server or else we won't able to help you anything. Hope you understand.

Thanks Dam. Unfortunately I cannot put a copy of our corporate intranet out in a public place so that you can investigate the reasons as to why the code does not work.

To all other eDocman users - if anyone else elects to install the additional code as provided by Dam, it would be beneficial to know if it implements correctly. This would at least let us know if it is a local issue on our server or some issue with the provided code.

Further update - Dam's code kind of works if in the Configuration area, you set 'Use simple front-end upload form' to No (see Attachment 1). Our issue is that we have categorised our documents by Departmental View, Table View and File type View. In the backend I have the ability to add a new document to all three categories (see Attachment2 and Attachment3). Unfortunately, as you can see from Attachment 4 I can only add the document into either the same category or a sub category WITHIN the existing category (Attachment5)
