[SOLVED] How to allow the blog post creator to change the category of an existing blog post

8 years 8 months ago - 8 years 8 months ago #277563 by STUCKSHUTTER
I discovered the blog post and love what it does. Simplified what I needed to do beyond belief. However, I need to allow the author of a blog post to change between the available joomla article categories set up for blogs.

So it is clear, I have the following structure:

Custom Articles
- Current Edition
- Prior Editions

The default category is Current Edition. What I need to do is allow the author to reclassify their existing articles between the Current Edition and Prior Edition and back to the Current Edition as necessary.

I can edit the article as the creator in the CB Profile but cannot seem to find a way to allow the user to change the category.

Can you help with my issue?

Thanks for your help.

A blog post can have its category changed freely. Edit the blog from your profile and select a new category from the category dropdown. Ensure category display hasn't been disabled within CB Blogs > Parameters > Defaults.

Thanks Kyle,
I had tried to edit it from the Articles tab, needed to do so from the blog tab.
