    Hi

    Is there a way to use a form field category that displays a category and its child category ?

    The idea is that the site categories at large as well child category of a given one might evolve through time, so I can’t include them “individually”, and I can’t exclude all the others neither.

    Thank’s in advanced for your attention

    Regards

    Do you want to ONLY show that Category Term and its children? If so, it would be better to have a custom taxonomy for just that Category Term, where the terms are all its children.

    Hi,

    Yes this is what I want. I indeed have considered building a category for that, but it is really penalizing if we consider the broader site content.

    At this time, it is the only way to achieve what you want though, sorry.

    ok

    Thank’s for your quick reply

    It may be a feature request, for V3, with the idea in mind that one could use the same form for sitewide search or scoped search 🙂

    regards

    Again, is it OK to close this thread for now?
