This would only work for indexing sites that actually add categories and passwords in their NZBs.
A few already add categories, but to my knowledge none add passwords (yet?).
So, first you need to know whether a site adds category info to their NZBs.
If so, you map their categories to yours.
So, suppose the site has categories "TV->SD" and "TV->HD" and you want only "TV",
your TV category's "indexer" column would need to contain "TV*" (without the quotes).

Thank you for the quick response.
I found a site the have a filter function on password, but does that mean that they have that tag or do they use another logic at:

I don't think there are any sites that actually embed passwords in NZBs.
SABnzbd is just prepared for the day that they do.
nzbclub is probably just warning you about passwords, but I doubt whether they reflect in a category.
Possibly they have the warning also in the name, in which case you can filter against it in an RSS feed.
