Ok I've been scanning threads here about category and category_pathauto and it seems that at this point it does not work or doesn't work 100%. I have a basic system with just a few nodes and am at the point where I need the features of category_pathauto to work.

So I have a category structure with a hierarchy of containers 2 deep then a series of categories.

I have put [categorypath] as the pathauto placeholder in the pathauto module settings for both the Container and Category node types.

If I regenerate paths I would hope to see the full path for the path aliases created such as [container1]/[container2]/[category] but I only see aliases off of the root created [container1]/ [container2]/ [category]/

So can anyone step through the necessary entries in each of the various settings screens for the category, pathauto, and category_pathauto modules to make this stuff work?

Or am I going to have to try something else?

jaydub: you might try applying the patches #24 and #27 at http://drupal.org/node/70640 to the latest 4.7 version of Category package which contains the category_get_parents fixes.

you might also try setting [title] for your containers and [container]/[title] for your categories in the node path settings of pathauto.

That worked for me at least!
