I have a client who has the needs to link one category to several parents.  Looking at the database tables I already know the answer to this, but can a category be linked to several parents?

Maybe there is another solution we aren't considering.

See example below:

  • Parent 1
    • Child 1
    • Child 2
  • Parent 2
    • Child 2

The goal is for someone who is navigating through the category tree to be able to click on the Child 2 category and see all of the documents displayed associated with the category "Child 2" that is associated with both Parent 1 and Parent 2.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Stuart

Hi Stuart,

Nope. This won't be possible without some serious code adjustments. I can't see an easy way out of that.
