You used to be able to mouse over the edit link for the categories to get their ID and it would be displayed. This no longer happens. Certain plugins require this ID.

Hi!
The URL of the "Edit Category" link should still contain the 'cid' part - many plugins have been changed in the past months to use dropdowns for categories instead of forcing entering IDs - the only place where it needs to remain is where you need to enter multiple category IDs...?
Best regards,
Garvin

As near as I can tell, its not showing up. Here is the page source thats being generated. I don't see it in there:
Code: Select all
Below is a list of categories available to your entries:<br /><br />
<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4" width="100%" border=0>
<tr>
<td width="16"><a href="?serendipity[adminModule]=category&serendipity[adminAction]=edit&serendipity[cid]=3"><img src="/templates/default/admin/img/edit.png" border="0" alt="Edit" /></a></td>
<td width="16"><a href="?serendipity[adminModule]=category&serendipity[adminAction]=delete&serendipity[cid]=3"><img src="/templates/default/admin/img/delete.png" border="0" alt="Delete" /></a></td>
<td width="16"> </td>
<td width="300" style="padding-left: 20px"><img src="/templates/default/admin/img/folder.png" style="vertical-align: bottom;"> General</td>
<td>General</td>
<td align="right">All authors</td>
</tr>

Hi!
Check the "cid" variable. It's "3" for you.
HTH,
