Description

With a Tiki build-in module like logo.
In Visibility you can set a parameter to filter to have the module used with specific object categories.
For cat22 and cat23 you should add a semi-colon like this : "22:23".
On save the semi-columns are deleted and the filter is not working at all.

See Solution (for the custom modules)

With a custom module you had to add a parameter per category to have the same behavior.

On a custom module in the parameter field if I set several category like this:
nobox=y&category=22&category=23

In the modules once saved it look like this as before.

But only the last category entered will have the effect to display the module.
All previous categories will be omitted unlike before and this is a regression.

Solution

For custom modules you can use category[]=22&category[]=23 as mentioned by Luci in the comment.

You can also use &category1=22&category2=23 as explain here https://doc.tiki.org/Creating-Custom-Modules?latest=1#Edit_Create_Custom_ModuleQuestion


For Tiki module it is imperative to use semi-columns (and not columns)
