Right now I have 10 category groups and about 300 categories.  Obviously, this makes adding new articles fairly tricky.  The hardest part is remembering which category group I’m looking at.

For example, “Porsche” could be the name of two different categories.  The porsche category in the “News by Company” category group, and the porsche category in the “News by Make” category group.

On the publish page, category groups are just seperated by some dashes (”———”).  Is there any way to have the seperator show the NAME of the category group?  For example, “——-News by Make——-” instead of just “———” ?

Any help would be much appreciated.

anyone?

You’d have to apply a hack to cp.publish.php
In the function category_tree() find the line:

$this->categories[] = $DSP->input_select_option('', '-------');

and replace it with

$q = $DB->query("SELECT group_name FROM exp_category_groups WHERE group_id='".$val['2']."';"); 
$this->categories[] = $DSP->input_select_option('', '--- '.$q->row['group_name'].' ---');

But I’d rather post a feature request ...
