Hi, yes, for now user can create only one main category and many subcategories:

This is because of security reasons.
Where do I need to customize the code? Thanks in advance.
It is really hard to say as Phoca Gallery includes over 70.000 lines of code and there are different dependencies between different rights, so in fact most of all files included some part which depends to this behaviour

check the user view in frontend and libraries folder in backend.

Hi Jan,
You've done a brilliant job with Phoca gallery - excellent work!
I would just like to add my vote that I also would love to be able to allow front-end users to create more than one main category.
I understand this is due to security reasons but do you think this will be a feature in the near future?
I would prefer my clients only to be able to have front-end access you see but at the moment I have to give them [limited] back-end access with more access to Phoca gallery features than I would like.
I hope you will be so kind as to consider this as a feature soon.

Keep up the good work!
