Category Action Documentation
Once the planned 'autodoc' feature for actions is "live", this page will contain the automatically-generated documentation by just including an action; for now, I've just manually created the text.See also:
- WikiCategory - the explanation pages distributed with the wikka package
- CategorySystemOverhaul - for ideas on a new system
- PageAndCategoryDivisionInACategory - development of the existing action

Is it possible to have the category action list the name as John Smith? Is there any other way to issue this?
I am using Wikka as a PIM and have a contacts category. Using the 'category' action, all the names are listed well, but without spaces making it hard to read. Any ideas/suggestions?
