Hide Idea Categories From Portals
We have two portals, one for internal users and one for customers. The customer portal only needs a simple list of categories - no children categories. The customer portal is submit only.
For the staff portal, after a product manager has looked at the idea, we may reassign the idea to a different category, which is usually a child of the parent category - this is to make it more specific internally, but we don't expect the users to go down to that detail.
Would it be possible for the idea category screen to have tickboxes to say what idea portal they appear in? Children would need to inherit a do not appear if it is disabled for the parent. This could be always display, unless its disabled. There is also cases where there are categories that an internal user would use, but a customer would not know what it was as they are never exposed to that item, so in this case, it would be best to hide it, to keep the list as concise as possible.

I'd go a little further and allow the hiding of sub-categories and/or specific categories. This would give our users a simple list of categories to select from, and then our PMs can go and further categorize more popular issues into a specific initiative/feature/product set.
My organization has these exact same requirements as listed above. It would be great to see this developed!
Yes the ability to mark a Category "internal" in the same way as is available on user accounts.
This would be a great improvement. We have exactly the same requirements as the original post.
We have a customer facing and internal team facing ideas portal, so we would like to the ability to show different categories on each.
I too would love to be able to have categories for ideas, but not show the categories in the idea portal, so that the idea portal can be easy for clients to post ideas to, but product managers can add a little more granularity for what the idea is related to. As of right now, I am creating tags as a workaround for this.
We would also want this. Easy for external submissions and allows for more granular reporting and assigning on the backend
We would like to do this with products on the categories list too.
