Permise edit item without a category

[BomAle]

I am asking for future release to permise developers to have option to edit item without any category (0) because a default system not avoid to delete all category... if admin delete all category and try to edit items it will get 2S136/E error

I don't know if there is some reason that IPS developers must fix before integrate this, but it could be useful for members that would use tags instead categories, behaviour for restricted content could be related only for admin moderator but members and guest could have same permissions.

(--- category for admin

--- category for members ) this is a block it could be moved on sidebar

(block list with all available tags go here)

TABLE -> list of items without category permissions, filter by tags (multiple allowed)

some guide talk about: "In most cases"

into the \IPS\Content\Item::canEdit  we have

/* Do we have moderator permission to edit stuff in the container? */
if ( static::modPermission( 'edit', $member, $this->containerWrapper() ) )
{
	return TRUE;
}

-------
if $this->containerWrapper() assign the first param to true it will not trow exception $this->containerWrapper( true )

Is this a custom application? If so you can just override the canEdit() method in your content item class to set the check however you need.

Yes, I have forced to avoid deleting all categories and on install the source create first category. I have adopt in-built theOnlyNode added fourth param for set specific permission (not only view, like read and add...). When go to add/create item form, the code autoload the category if there are not any others.

site/defaultmodule/add/ if not request id check for theOnlyNode(.., .., .., 'add') if only load item( $theOnlyNode ) else create( NULL ) this will add into form the form/node to select a category as required.

This way I can offer ability to categorize and tagging. I can go forward
