 * Is there a way to be able to change the category of the post in the edit screen
   linked from cf7_2_post-edit shortcode?
 * I use the Display Posts plugin ([https://wordpress.org/plugins/display-posts-shortcode/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/display-posts-shortcode/))
   to show posts and need to be able to categorize people’s form submissions.

 * no, not from the GUI screen, but you can hook the action that is fired after 
   each submission mapping and programmatically change this. (see [screenshot](https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-my-contact-form-7/#screenshots)#
   8, you want to use the hook #16)
