Hi!

Context: I’m working on an international forum which have a few subcategories for some languages and we’re reorganizing it all.

We currently have categories such as:

 ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/9/8/98d4068020b52c73b7aba01f221de4d56a6dea70.png)

Since only German is active, this this the only subcategory we’ll be keeping.  
However, we’d like to add French and make this category somehow redirect to a French other Discourse instance.

So I’m not sure what’s the best way to do it.

Make a French subcategory with only one topic containing a link to the French Discourse?  
It makes a lot of clicks to go to the French Discourse. Category → Subcategory → Topic → Link

Make the category link directly open the French Discourse in a new tab? Is such a thing possible?

Any other idea? 🤔
