 * Hi Bhaldie,
 * Is it possible to assign a file to a category using wordpress categories ? or
   at the moment is it only possible to assign tags ? I do not see a field for selecting
   a category when uploading a new file and I would really like to be able to select
   one. I believe adding wordpress default categories taxonomy would be quite easy.
   I have done so for custom post type in some of my plugins and it does not require
   alot of modifications.
 * Thanks,

 * Currently you are right only tags are available. I will add this to the feature
   request list and try to add it asap 🙂
