Creating Categories

Before you can start placing items in categories, you must create a category.

 Tip

Remember, if you want other users to be able to view categorized objects and browse the category, you need to assign the category permissions to the group.

For example, if you want all users to be able to view categories, you must assign the tiki_p_view_categories permission to the Anonymous group. See the Configuring Group Permissions for details.
  1. From the Administration Category page, click Administer Categories.
  2. The Admin Categories page appears.
    Creating a new category.
  3. Enter the following information in each field in the Add New Category area on the Create/Edit category tab:
    • Parent: Top
    • Name: Web 2.0
    • Description: Cool new web technologies.

     Note

    Notice that the Current Category is Top. This means that the newly added category will be a child (or subcategory) of the Top category.

  4. Click Save. The newly created category appears as a child of the Top category.
