Issue Summary

Steps to see the bug:

1) Install Drupal 4.7 beta1

2) Install Category, Category_menu and Category_display modules.

3) Turn off Taxonomy and Comment modules, turn on Category, Category_menu and Category_display modules.

4) Create root container "Sections" with properties:
Types: Story
Hierarchy:Single
Menu item for this container: Off
Menu items for child categories: On
Menu items for assigned nodes: On

5) Click "Create content->Category"

Do you see it?
After category creation we can edit its properties and change its parent. But only after creation.

See this comment - no easy way to solve the problem right now, so I'm not willing to work on a solution at this point in time. Please make use of the 'add child category' links on container pages for now - these will make the parent select box appear.

I don't know, which point in time is where this got fixed, but the 6.x version certainly works without this problem. After selecting the container, a list of possible parents for a new category is updated through JavaScript (or through an extra update button, if JavaScript disabled), so the form works just fine without need to be revisited.

So I consider this Fixed (strictly taken, HEAD is now 6.x, and 4.7.x is now unsupported anyway).
