Maybe someone really does have a fix but that theme and twitter are well known for that problem. Many say it is JS related so all one supposedly needs to do is download more recent js files.

Perhaps I mislead you in my last post.
I have not used the twitter or repurpose theme but have seen your problem.
I do not have the answer but some claim that the problem your having is due to outdated JS files.
Personally I disagree but because I don't know what the answer is I don't comment.

The JS file is item_form.js located in the theme JS folder.
Attached is the most recent version of that file. Save your old one just in case.
Hopefully someone truly does know and give the answer because this has been a problem for many for a long time and kills the popularity of both these themes.

Please post back letting us know.....

Tom

If you were to uncheck the allow posting in main categories in admin - this should allow for posting in sub categories to open.

I have yet to see this resolved satisfactorily without replacing the code or entire page with one from another theme.

Maybe someone has and will jump in with an answer.

Hi tom,
Thank you for reply.
I unchecked the the following option in admin panel. But still I did not get the subcategories list.
General settings--->Category settings --->
Parent categories
Allow users to select a parent category as a category when inserting or editing a listing.
Pleas help me with regard this mater.
Thanks in advance.
