[SOLVED] CB Blogs no display of main category with K2 was created by activha

Hello

Using CB blogs with K2 model, it seems that items published in the main category are not displayed in CB Blogs tab, only items of subcategories are displayed

How can I correct this ?

The main category is not used for storage of blogs. It's just a container for the blog categories. The user should not be able to select the main category as their blog category so am unsure how they managed to add blogs to it.

How can I correct this ?

You can't, it's working as designed. I suppose you could opt for not selecting a top level category then use the Exclude category feature to exclude all your other categories except the main category and its children. This should allow them to store to that category and allow the display of blogs in that category on profile.

OK got it

thanks for the explanation, it was due to a misconfiguration in K2 which allowed posting in main cat.

And we use the K2 editor as CB Blogs editor does not allow extra-fields (which is really something you should consider adding in CB Blogs)
