Simple Categories Plugin? - jdvorheis - 2013-04-06

Hey guys, I am a newer user to GS and I love it!

I am having one issue which is I cannot find a simple category plugin that allows me to create categories and select them for my pages and then output a list (like in a sidebar) that shows the categories and how many pages in each category. Like this for example:

Type of Analysis
Quantitative (8)
Qualitative (7)

Setting
Lab (5)
In-situ (2)
Remote (3)

I have tried using plugins that provide category support but they just don't do what I need them to do. I have tried l18N Special Pages, Items Manager, GS Blog, etc.

Am I just missing something here?
Does this plugin exist and I'm just not finding it?
Can anyone help me find it? Or make a recommendation?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks.

JD

Hi jdvorheis.

It is still a beta version, but works. You can create groups, categories, tags,... demo in: http://cumbe.260mb.org/blog/

You can do this with the I18N Search plugin - I just created instructions here.
