Using categories for your pages is a great way to help users quickly locate relevant information. Categories are used across different parts of your platform, such as the Pages overview and the drop-down page menu.
In the Pages overview, users can filter pages by category to find specific content efficiently. Similarly, the drop-down page menu displays pages organized by categories, making navigation easier and allowing users to find information quickly. You need the "Manage categories" permission for pages to manage categories.
Create a category
When you create page categories, it's best to consider the groupings and terminologies used within your company. It's also important to keep the categories simple so that your users can easily understand what they refer to.
The most commonly used categories are typically based on company areas, such as departments, locations or regions, topics, or services.
- In the Pages overview, select Manage Categories in the left-side menu.
- Select Create new category.
- Enter the name of your category.
- Press Enter on your keyboard to confirm.

Created categories can be assigned to a page when creating or editing the page.

- In the Pages overview, select Manage Categories in the left-side menu.
