Continuing the discussion from [In a top category page, show only its own topics below subcategories](https://meta.discourse.org/t/in-a-top-category-page-show-only-its-own-topics-below-subcategories/39527):

So I’m guessing through context that this function has to do with the discussion above, but it doesn’t appear to actually do anything, and it seems to lack the characteristic labeling that Discourse features have:

Changing that setting does nothing, and does not save the setting.

Can we reproduce this @tshenry?

I definitely noticed that the translations were missing. I was actually thinking about bringing that up today, but I saw @vinothkannans mention it was a WIP. He would know best where things stand.

This was the commit that introduced the category setting

Yes, it’s a half-done feature. Looks like I accidentally pushed it to master from my local dev environment. I [reverted it](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/e1af91f5aeaf5d19837544adab416b6ae3559e0f) for now.
