Why don't we have Categories in modules like Classes, Ads and Albums?

Hello UNA Team

Why don't we have a pre-populated 'Category' list for Classes, Ads and Albums like Forum, Post, Events categories etc?

Studio > Forms > Data List > Classes

Studio > Forms > Data Items > Classes

Studio > Forms > Data List > Ads

Studio > Forms > Data Items > Ads

Studio > Forms > Data List > Albums

Studio > Forms > Data Items > Albums

But we still have the support for the Classe multi-categories:

Studio > Forms > Categories > Classes

I don't want to use the 'Categories' (multi-categories) because it enables the 'Create own category' option and there is no way to disable it. I don't want members to create their own categories.

Please, can I safely create 'Classe', 'Ads' and 'Albums' Category Lists in Forms > Data Lists, then Categories in Forms > Data Items?

Thanks

ADS categories & subcategories are managed in ./studio/ads/categories

Oh yeah, Thanks Peter, i forgot about that one! What about Classes and Albums, can I safely create Category Lists and Items for them?

Classes belong to Courses. So a course has Classes. Categories for Courses can be managed in studio/forms/datalists/courses, Classes dont have categories. Modules neighter.
So the workflow is:
Create a course
Create a Module (1 to many) within this course
Create a Class (1 to many) within this Module
So the summary: A course has Classes organized in Modules of this course...

Concerning Albums: I have not tested Albums right now, but will report when I did, if still needed then...

Based on your explanaition of Classes above, I've started wondering whether we really need categories for Albums. Maybe that's the reason why UNA devs didn't put them.
