Prepopulate Subcategory based on where I am in the community.

I think it would help users choose the right category, if the subcategory was preloaded based on where they are in the community.

Example - If I search, end up in the CRM category, but don’t find my answer and go to post a new question, it’d be nice if I didn’t have to dig through the categories to find the right one. It should assume I’d like to post in CRM.

It’s not a huge inconvenience for the main community, but we’ve got a few restricted areas, and it’d be cool if employees/partners didn’t have to scroll through the long list of options.

Hello Nate, the idea as been delivered. This is now working on production. When creating a topic from a child category or from a topic, the category field will be pre-filled.

Hey @Marion Frecaut 

It works for me only on the child category and not the main categories, is that how to works? 

 

Thanks!

Yes this is normal. You can only post topics within child categories. You can't post content in parent categories.
