Hi SI folks,

Just checked the new event group! Wonderful. This will be quite nice to have specific type of custom fields on these events. However, when you try to create a new event under a group, the event categories that you choose from are exactly the same then the regular event :/

I would suggest a simple bool var in the
Event - Categories - General tab
a) Is this Categories showed in General Event ? (Y/N)
b) Is this Categories showed in Group Event ? (Y/N)

Then with a simple variable check on both categories layout, you could have full flexibility to where you want to see an event 4 changes in 6 lines I would say

Alex
Thanks for the heads up on this Alexandre! I think this needs to be thought deeply as it's not as simple as adding these boolean values. Because the privacy between the event category and the group category as well.

Your correct, the deep-end solution would be 2 different kind of categories at all which would be separate but both would share the same base class. However, the boolean solution is more a quick patch simple filter. I do get the issue about privacy however it doesn't make too much change to have shared categories if not desired. Maybe with sub-categories (Shared, General only or event only)...

Anyway I'll post a voice.
