Default category when creating new items

hmm, there is nothing set to "default" as "checked", so if that is happening, it could be a browser issue. Which browser (and version of that browser) is this happening on?

 

that isn't right. go here and tell me what you get: http://xenaddons.com/showcase/

 

btw, there is ONE rule exception to this with the new "Create Item" button that is located in FORUMS (next to the create thread button) that are associated to Showcase Categories. It will "pre select" the showcase category that is associated with that Forum... if there are multiples, it will select the last (because its within a loop). There is no way to "pick" which one is pre selected. You'd be better off just removing that check from the template.

template name: nflj_showcase_choose_category

HTML:

            <select name="category_id" class="textCtrl" id="ctrl_category_id" autofocus="true">
                <option value="0">&nbsp;</option>
                <xen:foreach loop="$categories" key="$categoryId" value="$_category">
                    <option value="{$categoryId}"
                        {xen:if '!{$_category.allow_items} or !{$_category.canCreateItem}', 'disabled="disabled"'}
                        {xen:if '{$_category.thread_node_id} == {$nodeId}', 'selected="selected"'}  
                        >{xen:string repeat, '&nbsp; ', $_category.depth}{$_category.category_name}</option>
                </xen:foreach>
            </select>

remove this:

HTML:

{xen:if '{$_category.thread_node_id} == {$nodeId}', 'selected="selected"'}  

 

no problemo
