How to Add New Categories

Categories are optional, but starting by adding them is a good first step. They can also be added later and added to a blog post, activity or event after it has been created. The process of setting up categories starts by selecting which area to which you want to add the category or categories..

1. Select either Blogs, Activities, or Events under the Content Manager settings in the Dashboard

2. Click on the blue button on the top right as follows:

   1. For Blogs, click on Blog Categories then Add blog category

   2. For Activities, click on Activity Types then Add activity type

   3. For Events, click on Event Types then Add event type

3. Enter a Name for the category. The subsequent fields are optional: (see sample below)

   1. Page Headline (if left blank the term name will be used)

   2. Description

   3. Page Title (provides a description of this term to appear in the <title> tag which search engines can use in search result listings)

4. Hit the Save button at the bottom and the category is now ready to use

5. Repeat Steps 3-4 for each Category you wish to add
