Working draft / WIP — needs a deep code review. (but generally it's working) :-D
— Add frontend category editing to com_content (controller/model/view/template, routing, icon layouts) to mirror the long-existing frontend article editing.
— Introduce core.edit.frontend for categories and show the edit icon on category pages when authorized.
— Reuse the admin category form (title/alias, description, image, custom fields, publishing/state, metadata, tags, associations, permissions) and hide the unused workflow tab on the frontend.
— Force category edit links to use the edit layout and numeric-only routes (ID retained under SEF); carry Itemid and rebuild breadcrumbs to keep menu context.
— Frontend article editing has worked for years; categories were the missing piece—this PR aims to close that gap.
core.edit.frontend plus core.edit/core.edit.own (and core.edit.state if needed) on the target category/branch.layout=edit); verify page title/heading uses the category title and breadcrumbs stay in context.core.edit.frontend, confirm the icon is hidden and direct access to the edit route is rejected (403).— Frontend article editing works, but frontend category editing is missing: no edit icon, no frontend form, and categories must be edited in the administrator.
— Authorised users can edit categories on the frontend via the new icon; the form mirrors backend fields, respects ACL, preserves Itemid/breadcrumb context, and routes with numeric IDs.
