 * I’d only like users to be able to subscribe to a specific category, is that possible?
 * The previous thread asked something similar but I didn’t want to intrude on another
   user’s post…
 * thanks in advance!

 * Hi nando99,
 * Thanks for trying out Post Notif and putting in the effort to keep the threads
   coherent – I do appreciate it! 🙂
 * Just like the thread you referenced, this is another good feature that is presently
   lacking in Post Notif. Truth be told, this was something I liked in the old Post
   Notification plugin, and have intended to add all along and just haven’t done
   it to this point.
 * If you can wait a bit, I will put it on my list of enhancements, but honestly
   don’t know when it will get implemented. In the meantime, I don’t know what your
   comfort level is as pertains to tinkering with plugin code, but if you have a
   relatively static set of categories that you want users to be able to choose 
   from, it shouldn’t be terribly difficult to do some hardcoding in a few places
   to restrict the available categories to only those you want to expose. Please
   let me know if this sounds appealing and I can point you in the right direction.
 * Thanks,
    Devon

 * Hi nando99,
 * As you’ll discover, when you get a chance to upgrade to v1.0.5 of Post Notif (
   released last night), your feature has been included. Please do let me know what
   you think, once you have a chance to try it out!
 * Thanks,
    Devon
