Hi Yannick, got another question for you.
Some of my links fit into multiple categories, when I select more then one they are duplicated in the listing. For example one link fit into 12 categories so it was listed 12 times. Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks
There is no fix for this at this. Now, that being said, what type of behavior would you expect if a link has been assigned to multiple categories and you display all of these categories? There is no concept of a primary category in the link manager, to only show it under one category. And displaying separate sections showing the links that have the same category intersect would look strange and be hell to manage in the back-end.
That question has come up a few times over the years but no one really had a good use case and way to present a link found under multiple categories other than have it show up in each of them.
If you have ideas on this topic, let me know.
