Is there a frontend way to create a category for a file upload?

IIRC, PhocaDownload used to have the ability to allow a category to be created when a file was uploaded. Is that still possible?

Thanks, Jan - did I miss a step in the install that allows my front end users to create a category for a file upload?

On my recent install, there's a way to select a category to upload a file into, but not a way to create a category.

I'm using version: 3.2.0

And, if I simply missed that there's not a way to do that, what would it take to be added?

Hi, in Phoca Download there were never the option to create category in frontend, this was possible e.g. in Phoca Gallery but not in Phoca Download. :idea:

It is in feature request list but still not implemented. :-(

Just saw the last post from Jan - sorry for my earlier send.

What could be done to assist? Maybe some incentive? (read: $$)

Hi, unfortunately, for now there are a lot of feature requests waiting and unfortunately the priority is to overwrite the system to work with Joomla! 4 :-(
