Categories and sub-categories was created by Graham S. Jarvis
Hello,
could someone please explain to me the purpose of setting up sub-categories.
If I set up a Menu Item "com_eventbooking » Upcoming events - Timeline Layout" (or Category - Timeline layput) I cannot simply select "BLS Events" and expect "Churchill Lecture" to be displayed as well. have to add the "Churchill Lecture" category in the options tab->Categories box.
Another way to have both categories displayed is to add "Additional Categories" in the Event Manager->Event Detail.
All this seems to negate the point of having sub-categories set up in "Categories". . . . .
Thanks,
-Graham-

Hello Tuan,
this makes it VERY flexible:
If I want to have categories displayed that have nothing to do with each other all I need to do is to add those "Additional Categories" in the Event Manager->Event Detail.
And if I just want to display categories which are directly related to each other I set them as children (sub-categories).
I hope that everyone reading here recognises that this is the reason why we are more than happy to keep subscribing for this extension
Thanks again,
