We would like to be able to have one Article in Community tied to multiple categories.

For example, if we have one document about Topic A we’d like to be able to say that document should show in Product 1, category 1; Product 2, category 1.

Currently to have the same content in both places means we have to duplicate content, which makes management of content (to keep everything current) a nightmare.

Please let me know if I need to clarify this idea further.

This is something that we really want as well in our knowledge base. We have multiple products and a lot of overlap for product-agnostic questions, articles, resources, etc. Creating duplicate topics is a non-starter for us as a solution because it’s not scalable or sustainable.

I second this so very much. Especially for our Knowledge Base.

Case in point: We have two tv boxes and a whole host of how-to articles for them. 85% of those articles apply to both boxes. The remainder apply to a single box. So now we have 3 categories: one for box A, one for box B and one for the articles that apply to both. This is confusing for our customers.

Agree this would be helpful as I have to duplicate and recreate articles across products to assure they display in each category.  This would be a big timesaver!
