Hi there, first of all, I´d like to say, that discourse is great. I really aprecciate the work of the developers. We just set up a new chat-forum and now we are trying to organize some wiki-styled things. In the “how-to”-categorie, I saw some tables on the top, which are so cute: [2017-11-29 17_06_25-Top howto topics - Discourse Meta - Cyberfox] I´d like to have something similar as a toc. Can anyone please tell me, how to implement those boxes in our forum? Is there a plugin? Or are there any other ways to create a table of content on top of a category? Thx a lot for your answers. Kind regards, Roland

If you go into the settings for a parent category you can find this option to display subcategories [22 AM]

Great, thanks! Is there a limitation for entries in those boxes or will there be hundreds of entries? Regards, Roland

If you go into the settings for the subcategory you can configure how many appear, I believe 3 is the default [00 AM]

hm,… three is indeed the default and seems to be the maximum limit. up to let´s say fifteen would be nice though,… I´ll seek in here if I can find a solution how to change this, but first I´m gonna have supper.. thx Kris!

Thx, you guys are the best. I was trying to change the amount of entries in the main-category. It has to be changed in the sub-category thogh! I´m kewl with that now! ps. Is there a solved flag anywhere ´round here? :ok_hand:

[image] Roland_W: ps. Is there a solved flag anywhere ´round here? Yup, let me get that for you. :slight_smile:
