Channel Categories #241

Ability to have channel categories

This would allow for networks with lots of rooms to easily group them for easier searching. Making the categories configurable in the config for example

then a user looking for say news and politics could do /list np and it will display all rooms for news and politics. Making this configurable would allow it to be customized to the network say breaking down rooms on a coding network to have rooms for php, html, c++ etc

LIST already takes a wildcard so if you have e.g. "politics" in the topic you can do /list *politics*.

This is true, but by having configurable categories rooms for example one room america love it hate it debate it doesn't have politics in the name but would show up if searching for a category politics, this is just an example. Or another example Open Minded would not show up if searching for lifestyles but would if it could be categorized. Being configurable for categories would make it more universal for networks to define their own categories.
