The problem with creating categories is only for WPMS that have the plugin network activated. It hasn’t been fixed yet.

Only reason categories is turned off by default is some people might not want to use them.

Thanks for letting me know. I will try to replicate the problem and fix it.

Thank you.

I think it would work best as a seperate plugin because there could be so many new options using BuddyPress and the coding would be somewhat different.

If I would decide to make such a plugin, it wouldn’t be until sometime in 2011.

I’m not sure why there was an error adding the category, but the items not displaying may have been due to needing to click on Save Changes after enabling categories. I realize this is not ideal and have added a note to the plugin in the version I released tonight stating you need to do so.

Category support is still fairly rudimentary at the moment. I added it because I needed it for a site I’m creating, but due to working on that site, I haven’t had as much time to devote to the plugin.

Please let me know if you are still having problems and any specifics you are able to provide.

Thank you for that suggestion RavanH. There was something like that in the install function. I’ve removed it in the version I was publishing today (1.4).

Apparently I didn’t do enough testing (or tested correctly). I’m going to be starting to look at WordPress 3.0 next month to get the plugin ready for that version.

I did some testing in WPMU and didn’t run into any problems with the plugin.

I’m the plugin author. The answer is… I don’t know. I’ve never used WPMU. I’ll try to check soon to see and to fix any incompatibilities if I can.
