All of the categories show up in my main labPanels page, even the subcategories. How do I utilize labCategories capacity for subcategories within labPanels? by 2
The subcategory typed labPanels can be displayed by creating a block that lists the panels within each subcategory and display each block in it's associated primary category typed panel. example structure: Main Category * Panel 1 * Panel 2 Sub Category * Panel 3 * Panel 4 In Panel 1 and/or Panel 2, display a labPanels block with the cid of the Sub Category.
Can I control the order that my panels are listed in?
Yes. labPanels is designed with labCategories in mind. If you have labCategories installed, you can assign each panel to a category and they will be listed in the same order that their categories are ordered in labCategories.

If there is a problem or bug in the version of labPanels you are running, and you are using an older version of labPanels, upgrade to the most recent version. As bugs are reported and fixed, new builds are released to distribute the fixes. If the version of labPanels you have is the newest available, then email us, submit a new FAQ, or post about it in the site forums.
My ShortURLs are not displaying on labPanels pages. Why not? by 2
Because ShortURLs (in most cases) utilize the content object buffer, the buffer is emptied by labPanels while it compiles block displays. A fix has not yet been created.
The block organizer page is using a theme that makes it difficult or impossible to organize the blocks. How do I fix this? by 2
The theme you have selected for that labPanel is the culprit. Go back to the admin labPanel list and edit the page you are working on. Change the theme for that page to something that you can read then go back to organizing blocks.
Why don't any entries show up for the labPanels block I just created using the apiFunction block? by 2
If you have labCategories installed, you must indicate which category ID to display ("cid=#" in the apiFunction textarea, or "cid=all" for the entire panel list). If all of your panels are in categories, then not specifying a category ID instructs the block to pull all panels with category ID of zero.
