I reported some problems earlier with getting certain categories to work properly. I had grouped my top level categories by geographic area. There are no ads in them but they are geographic locales (Europe, US, Australasia)

Within those categories, I wanted to place subcats that have ads of different types, Forsale, Wanted, Services, but I can't because for some odd reason, I need to choose a template type for the parent category (the one with no ads). Why does it need a type if it has no ads?

I understand that the siblings need to have the same type of ad type as each other and their parent, but is there some reason for this? Why can't a parent (with no ads in it) point to children with different template types?

Regards,

Matt
