default category and default Inherit parameter was created by alfredopacino
hi, i'm trying to simplify the managing of the site.
the managers of my site will create only subcagories of a one main category.
There's a way to set a default category and a default inherit parameter option from main category in backend?

maybe the user shouldn't be able to create uncategorized articles and categories out of a 1 category..how can i do that?

Hello Alfred,

You change the access the users have in the K2 User Group settings.
This is for front-end editing however.

the managers should can create subcategories of this category, so since k2 cant create categories from frontend they have to manager items and categories from backend.
create categories from frontend would be very useful to me..
So i cant define a default category and a default inherit parameter category?

In the frontend, yes.

You can define the category or parent category users can post into. These settings are located in the K2 User Group's settings.

i don't need front end edit if the user can't create categories..

another thing: i want to hide completely the create date, the author and some other thing, i can hide in category parameter but not in general option.
I'm tryng to make my site more userfriendly as possible, those issue doesn't help :(

Yes. Create one setup category and have all other categories inherit their parameters form that one.

It does have that option.
Inheriting values is that option.
One master category will its options predefined and all the other categories will simply inherit its settings. So the option for global category settings does exist.
