When creating categories in a category menu, setting the parent category shows a list like:
catering : beverages
This works well. I have two categories named beverages. One is on a regular menu, one is on a catering menu.
I have a category menu, then another table for the items. Each item is assigned a category with the advanced name and num list.
But, when an administrator/ editor looks at the list of items, they see the category "beverages" for both the catering and regular menu. No breadcrumb (if thats what you mean by breadcrumb). Also, when assigning each item a category in the drop list for items, its the same thing. One flat list. Any way around this?

Hi,
In your drop down list, you can use "num" as the value of your options and "breadcrumbs" as your label. This way your drop down would look something like this:
catering: beverages
regular : beverages
Hope this helps

Oh, I see. That's perfect.
How can I remove the parents on the viewer? Normally, I would use:
but in various situations, I won't want the breadcrumbs, just the current category.
