Thanks for your answer tilqicom.
I understand point 1. and 2.
I see that I have now all blogs and under this I have the categories. I think it's although possible to have categerys over blogs.
I will explain in more detail for what I look. For example we have four blogs (A .. D). Users can now configured what blogs they see. For example
- user 1 blog A, C
- user 2 blog A
- user 3 blog B, C, D
..
This should be persists. When the user comes back he see only entry from that blogs on that he register.
I think I need to add some logic on the side with the user configuration (the side the user edit the password). But I don't know what I can do to change the 'SQL blog engine' to aggregate the blogs that the user has registered.

I see.. When you said "filter" i thought it was a temprorary selection.
There has gotta be a shorter and better way to do it via php but i am not very good at hacking the core.
So, I have looked into category list widget and it does not have a checkbox near each blog to choose.So what you can do to get around it is to have 'master category' for each blog and select those.Example:
[no_checkbox]Animal blog -blog#1 name-
[✔] Animals - catID#5
[ ] Cats
[ ] Dogs
[no_checkbox]Nature blog -blog#2 name-
[✔] Nature - catID#9
[ ] Trees
[ ] Flowers
This will give you an array like:
catsel[]=5&catsel[]=9
Which you can use to pass to server side, store and retrieve for each user.
1.Create an aggregated blog.It will gather all posts from the all blogs.
2.Insert a Category list widget, it displays all categories across blogs as well as all Blogs to choose and filter from.
3.Use an
statement to display widget and therefore give the ability to filter only to members.
