ParentCategory in ExportWizard not recognized [message #498499]

Hi all,

i wanted to create some sub categorys for several export wizards.
Therefore, i've defined a category with no parent and id xyz.
Afterwards, i've created a new category abc, that points to xyz as its
parent category.

My wizard points to xyz/abc/ in category attribute, but when i run the
eclipse, the wizard is allways displayed as a child of xyz instead of
xaz/abc.

Is subfolding (or subcategoring) in export wizard dialog prohibited?

Thanks Timothy

Hi Timothy,

It is a bit buggy indeed. However it works. The solution is that empty
categories will not be displayed and that the categories must be separated by
'/'. Empty categories can lead to strange effects. Here is a plugin.xml
snippet that works. Play with this and find out when it does strange things
then please file a bug.

Best regards,

Wim
