Known issues/limitations

(Please add here or use the talk page to mention other issues)

  • Category view for categories with some special characters can only be opened through the gadget
  • changing categories with sortkeys doesn't work
  • Some may prefer "Single click clears other selections" and "Two panes" options to be de-activated by default.
  • "Make subcategory of" doesn't appear to work
  • If the confirmation screen to add/move/remove files lists many entries, use "tab" to reach the lower part of the screen
  • When searching for categories to add or move files to, the search is somewhat slow after the first three characters.
