Categories was created by brian662
What my client needs is a site where a user can join the community through registration, and within the registration or after the registration, just listed within a category and each of these master categories can have sub-categories and then sub-sub categories.

This is the idea - animal/dog/beagle or plant/tree/maple

So one chooses the category and then the sub-categories for that category are visible for selection when they select a sub-category, the sub-sub-category show up.

Any help or guidance would help.

Thanks

Brian

What you're wanting is Conditional Fields. Sorry, this is not available currently. We've plans to implement conditional fields into CB 2.0, but that is a ways off from now. Only conditional field I've heard of (don't have links) is a Country > State > City type field.

You could actually do what your wanting using CBSubs however as plans are capable of "hiding" fields on registration. So for example you could have 2 plans (Animal and Plant) the user selects Animal and the Plants field hides (and vise verse of course) where user could then choose their type (dog, cat, etc..).

Great, I hope you will find the time to implement conditional fields in CB 2.0, it would be very useful for us too.
I know we could create different plans with CBSubs but they would be far too many to handle and very confusing, much better to have a few plans/categories and then conditional fields for diffent kind of subcategories.

Am working on a new incubator project that will be available to Professional subscribers to provide conditional fields (display of XYZ fields based on ABC fields value). Can't say when will be completed exactly by hopefully within 1-3 more weeks (am swamped!). CB 2.0 will have conditional fields official implemented, but project is to provide such feature for the time being.
