    Hello,

    Is it possible to add a Subcategory to the current Category’s that are being used?
    On a project i’m working on, the review system is getting used per brand/type.

    Example:
    Brand – Audi ID: 56 (Parent Category)
    Type – A1 ID: 456 – Sub of Parent ID: 56 (Sub Category)

    This way we can show at the page of Audi all reviews related to that brand and on the Type car all reviews related to that type.

    I hope to hear from you.

    Regards,

    Marc

    Site Reviews does not currently allow you to assign reviews to multiple categories.

    It does, however, allow you to assign a review to both a page ID and a category. However, it is generally not recommended to do this as then you will not benefit from the cached summary calculations.

    The reason that the summary calculations are cached is to avoid potentially expensive database queries (particularly when you have thousands of reviews) from being triggered every time the page with the summary is loaded (as was the case with v2.0).

    A future version of Site Reviews will use a dedicated lookup/pivot table in the database to manage review assignments. This will allow you to assign reviews to multiple categories and page IDs without a huge impact in performance.
