Hi!

I've made a write panel. in this panel i want to be _able_ to select
every category available.
When assign the write panel to every category, all of them are auto
selected when i want to make a new post, and I have to unselect the
ones I don't want..

Is there a way to avoid this?

If I don't assign the write panel to any categories there are no
categories to chose from in the category box.

You should unassign the write panel to the categories or else every
time you make a post they will be pre-selected as you've experienced.

the Issue with the category module not displaying is an incredibly
inconvenient bug in Flutter, but there is a fix that works for some

Go to the plugin folder at /wp-content/plugins/fresh_post and open up
the file RCCWP_WritePostPage.php

Do a Ctrl+F to find: $replacement = 'class="selectit"
style="display:none;">';

and change that string to: $replacement = 'class="selectit">';

That has fixed it on a number of installs that I've used Flutter for,
but apparently it isn't perfect.

About the "category bug", I thought all you had to do is re-select the
category module display in the screen options.
That's how I solved the problem on my install.

That would be awesome, unfortunately I havent had it work for me on
any site. But thansk for mentioning it... people troubleshooting
should definitely try that first before editing plugin files to see if
it works. Sorry, I forgot all about that option.
