    Hmm, im not sure whether this is something that is easily fixed with out having to be a special feature as such, but one thing i would like to have my customers be able to do, is suggest a category when they post.
    As when they choose there are bound to be hundreds of categories i have not thought of, and are not pre existing for them to choose, so it would be super if there was a "suggest category" field, which can be then approved or not by me..
    Again, perhaps its easy to setup anyways, but its a suggestion!
    Cheers!

    I believe you can add fields to your form. Type "add fields" or check the tutorials in the forum. Also, you may simply ask for users to email suggestions (suggestions@yourbusinessname.com) in the contact page. If you don't want to touch the code, you can set up a form/questionnaire thru www.woofu.com.

    I love this idea however right now this isnt possible through Wordpress. Users cn not request categories and then wait for approval buy you. The only way to do something like this is the old fashion way of having a user mail you the category they would like and you make the category yourself.
