[support] Using Taxonomy to filter topics / categories

[Geoff D]

Thanks.  There is not that much information on it there, but I trust a user
can change their settings any time and that they could remain logged in via
cookie and every time they visited the site they would get their custom view
rather than the general one.
Thanks again
Geoff
