Define focus for "choose node" post message page

The "choose node == true" flavor of the post new message page allows for an entry point that allows users to post a new message and picking the board it should be posted in at the same time. Example: http://community.skype.com/t5/forums/postpage/choose-node/true

 

I'd like to limit the focus of boards available in the "Board" dropdown to a certain category but had no success using the search filter style:

 

http://community.skype.com/t5/forums/postpage/choose-node/true?filter=location&location=category%3Ade

 Anyone knows how to limit the focus for available boards on that page?

    Thanks a lot. Indeed "category-id" work to set the category focus for available boards being listed in the dropdown while "board-id" allows to preselect a board.

    Here's a tip for advanced REST API hackers like you and me ;)

     

    If you I need to set both category focus and have a board preselected, e.g. have only boards from the "German" language category in our community shown and have the "Windows" board in the German category pre-selected simply combine both "choose-node" parameters like this (The order "category-id first then board-id" is crucial:

    choose-node/true/category-id/my_category_id/board-id/my_board_id

    Enjoy! :robotlol:
