Hi Slávek (or anyone else who admin’s the Wiki),
I’m trying to add the category list as displayed on:
https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Special:Categories
to the bottom of the main wiki page:
https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Trinity_Desktop_Environment
MediaWiki says CategoryTree is suppose to be able to do something like that and also is suppose to be enabled by default:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension%3aCategoryTree
But, it’s not enabled?, or I’m typo’ing the examples?
I could possibly do it manually, but then it’d get out of date. Would you know a way to accomplish this?
Basically trying to embed the full top level category list into the bottom of main page, so there is some navigation for users.
Best, Michael

Hi Michael, rather than adding that to the main page (which would make it messy and not much useful from other pages), I would add a Categories link on the left side menu which shows up the first link (https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Special:Categories). This way it would be accessible quickly from wherever you are in the site.
Cheers Michele

Hi Michele,
Ah, yes, way better! The current left side menu link, 'TDE Documentation' leaves much to be desired as it doesn’t actually point to all the documentation on the Wiki. Leaving it called 'TDE Documentation' is all good (no reason to confuse anyone), I’d just like to be able to build its landing page with the CategoryTree thing.
Best, Michael
