Description medin 2021-04-30 21:25:28 UTC

The decision to use a combobox to hide (or embed) a category at time is not suitable, because a user may want to hide multiple categories and current chosen component is limited to only one choice.
The best way to represent it is to use multiple checkboxes that represent all shown categories (including radios categories).

This feature is not really about hiding categories but rather embedding one of them in the sidebar; the fact that the embedded category is removed from the pages list is a side effect.

It sounds like you're looking for a generic method to hide unused categories.
