I want to start off by saying thanks for creating this, It's hands down the easiest way to get started creating roku channels.
Having said that, I'm having one small issue.. I can create posters, and categories, as well as sub-categories without any issues at all.
However, I can't seem to have more than one category on the home screen of the channel, only a single category and sub-categories under it.
I'm creating a pretty large channel and I need main page categories as well. Is this not yet implemented? or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks, I appreciate your time, and effort
There is no limit to the number of sub-categories that you can create with poster screens. You can embed them as child nodes of another poster item to create as many levels as needed.
