Hi, Florian,

I'd love this too.  There MAY be a way to do it with pagelist  
templating but I'd be pretty hard-pressed to figure it out.  There  
would need to be a way to determine all "top-level" category pages,  
and I think that's one problem.

So, you want to print all pages in group=Category, and nest in there  
every page that links to the current page -- sounds like something  
that needs nested pagelists, which I'm not sure can be done...

The outermost pagelist would contain only group=Category
The inner would call a pagelist of link={$FullName} for the current  
page in the queue.

But that's theory-only -- I don't think that there can be nested  
pagelists in the LocalTemplates page


So I think what it really becomes is a customized recipe, something like
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/DictIndex
except instead of A-Z it would be based on the Category pages.

Does anyone know any options like this?


reference documentation pages:
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/PageLists
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/PagelistTemplateSamples
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Site/LocalTemplates
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Site/PageListTemplates

I don't have a chance right now to see if I can easily figure this  
one out.

Thanks!
