    Ok, to explain what the title of this thread means: I’m hoping there’s something out there that lets us add categories to a post by typing them in (and autocompleting) instead of mutli-selecting.  Multi-selecting enormous lists (think 1k+) is just brutal, and one slip of a shift key and you’re done for.

    Has anyone made a modification like this?

    The Tag Module would be your best option here.

    I have the tag module.  I’m looking to continue using my categories, just be able to associate them with my entries easier.

    There is a category checkbox extension that may be better than the shift clicking?
