"All Categories" in the sidebar PLEASE

Hi @mikebore viswiz @ jqxfxiva @RebeccaL wdl0355 ! We've got some news for you: in the latest Beta, you can now show Categories permanently in the sidebar if you prefer that layout. 👍

If you'd like to try this out, download (or update to) the 8.6.0-6 Beta, and then go to Settings > Appearance and switch the Categories option under "Always Show in Sidebar" to on.

As always, we welcome your feedback, and will be eager to learn your impressions of this! Many thanks 🙏

Thanks for the feedback everyone and highlighting how important this is to you. 🤗

We've been doing some experimentation on enabling categories to be added to the sidebar. Be sure to check out the exploring sidebar categories thread for details and add your thoughts and 👍🏻 if it's what you were hoping for.

Take care,

Understood. :+1:

Also I don't think anyone is asking for a 'fully customizable to sidebar' - just restore categories into the left hand side!

@mikebore

Not quite how it works, I'm afraid. ;) But thank you for weighing in.

Ben

There are so many threads about this and so many replies from staff that it is "added to the list", wouldn't you save yourselves some work by just doing it! Only a semi serious suggestion...or perhaps make it a sticky? ;)

Hey wdl0355 and @RebeccaL:

Thanks for your feedback here, I've added your voice to the tracker note my colleague Peter mentioned above! :smile:

I too like the categories in the side bar.

Hi, +1 on categories for me too! I think I could find a workaround by restructuring my tagging system, but I really liked categories.
Thanks for considering! And I think 1P is a terrific password manager :)
