Topic-icon All articles are autoposting - not just the categories I specify

Try as I might I cant see where my mistake is. Probably its obvious.

I created the objects, and then linked to them in the channels.

Do I just need to check the category assignment in objects more carefully, or could something else be happening?

While we hope not, it's always possible you've encountered a bug.

Objects are greedy, in that if you select a category, that object will be applied to the category selected and any of it's subcategories. So, for the object(s) you've created, ensure that it's at the lowest-level of category that you want to be posted. If you want a parent category to post, but not it's sub-categories, that won't work currently, but I'm sure we could help you get that working.

If you think it's something else, can you let us know:
* Are you using standard Joomla content?
* Do you have any extensions for category management or that would post the same article in multiple categories, etc?
* Which social network are you posting to.. Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn?

Thanks,
Alex

1) Yes standard
2) Yes I installed multi-cats - but it caused another issue so have not been using. I am uninstalling as we speak.
3) All three.

I am betting point 2 is the issue. I will let you know.

Thanks Alex. Deleting Multi-categories component fixed it.

For the record I didn't believe for one minute that it would be a bug in your system. Your component is way too good for that to happen.
