A discussion about the Yearly Review plugin, specifically its category limitations, is underway. nathank initially expressed dissatisfaction with the default 5 public category limit, seeking flexibility to include both public and private content without restrictions. However, Moin corrected this assumption, referencing a previous topic and stating that there is no limit on the number of categories. nathank then confirmed this, successfully testing the plugin with 16 categories, including private ones, and has updated the plugin’s wiki description accordingly.
My use-case is a forum where there is an even split between public and private content.
I wish to (privately) share the yearly review, included both private and public content.
The limitation of 5 public categories really sucks for this use-case. I’ve had to set up a staging site, make it log-in only, and reset the category permissions to everyone for the (5) categories I want to include. As I’m not sure which are the busiest, I’ve done this for another 10.
Can’t we just make this plugin a little more flexible?
I’d love to be able to specify which categories (public or private), and have no limit on the number of categories. 5 most commonly used public categories is fine as a default, but it is just too restrictive much of the time.
