 * Hi [@pbacher](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pbacher/)
 * This is not possible in current version of the plugin. I added your suggestion
   in our suggestion list and will discuss on this. If the team approve the suggestion
   then it will be added in future version of the plugin.

 * Hey Nikhil,
 * thanks for your reply. just an idea: is it possible to create a custom drop down
   field and assign it to a category? If a user click on the category, then the 
   custom field will be Show? :-/
 * I just test it, but when will the custom field visible?
 * Thank you
 * Update: May found a solution. My idea before work and maybe other People can 
   use it:
    Step 1: create your categories Step 2: Create a custom field as a drop
   down Step 3: create the “categories” for the second Level Step 4: assign the 
   custom field to a categorie Step 5: Smile! =)
 * Now if a Support user choose a category with linked custom field (drop down) 
   the second Level will visible automatically.
    It is limited to two Levels but
   it´s aktually enough for us
 * Have a great day!
