Category not available during Link/Product (or any category item) creation

[Alexander Obuhovich]

There is a "Parent Section" (virtual field: CategoryId) on each category item adding/editing page.

This field allows to place category item into a specific category. This functionality works like a charm, but problem happens, when you need to set another field's value based on the category, where category item is added.

Usually method OnBeforeItemCreate is used for this kind of operation. Strange, but this CategoryId field has no value in this method, however it's clearly is specified on category item creation screen.

Task: http://tracker.in-portal.org/view.php?id=1058

Ready for testing.

Nope. You already can choose it via that field.

Simply add <inp2:m_RenderElement name="inp_edit_options" prefix="l" field="CategoryId" title="lu_title_ParentCategory"/> tag on link suggest form.

Also you can replace prefix="l" to prefix="n" to make it work for articles too.
