   Hi ,

   I'm using Restrict Category on post author and it's wroking just fine.
   i would like to use it also on contributor ( my contributors don't publish post , they only comment them ) and let them comment post only if they have at least one corresponding categories with the post.

   i found where to filter comment form but i'd like to know if there's an easy way to get categories from the current user to compare with the post categories ?

   Any idea appreciated !

   for those who minds, i found a solution :

   here's the code i use just before the comment form display :

   $allowed = false;
   $rco = get_option( 'RestrictCats_user_options' );
   $cu = wp_get_current_user();
   $cats = get_the_category();
   if(!is_null($rco[$cu->user_login.'_user_cats']))
   {
      foreach($rco[$cu->user_login.'_user_cats'] as $user_cat)
      {
         foreach( $cats as $cat)
         {
            if($cat->slug==$user_cat)$allowed = true;
         }
      }
   }
   else $allowed = true;

   Regards,
