Removing All categories

emres FreeBSD/OpenBSD last edited by

Hello folks,
I want to have hackernews-like interface for topic screen. Is there a way to disable all the categories system completely?
When I disable all categories users can t open new topic anymore.
When I left only one topic and put everything in users still have to select category while open new topics.
Any idea?

When trying to create a new topic on mobile, it seemingly does nothing one first submit button press, and then on second shows "Category not found" error... Seems to only happen on mobile, tested on iOS chrome.

@metalkramp it sounds like it may be easier for you to only use tags in this case, and use a custom plugin to display certain tags as if they are categories.

@pitaj said in Block 1 user from seeing category: NodeBB permissions are additive only, there are no negative permissions such as denying a specific user or group. Sorry to bump an old topic; are there any plans to implement such a feature anyway? Or is there a way we can build this ourselves? Its a pain right now to organize birthday gifts and allow everyone but one person.

Do this for the filter:categories.build hook as well
