Merge categories based on tags

Technical Support
  • I have kinda unusual case: multiple topics can belong to one or more categories, so I decided to use combination of tags and categories - because by default in NodeBB topic can belong only to one category (which can have at most one parent).

    Example: Let's imagine a topic which belongs to following categories: technical support, nodebb plugin development and nodebb development. Main or primary category would be technical support, and tags would be technical-support, nodebb-plugin-development, nodebb-development.

    How to display that topic also in categories nodebb plugin development and nodebb development?

    I found following plugin and was wondering if it was possible to display topics category with tag with same name:

  • @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.
