Page categories allow you to group all pages relating to the same topic, together.
By creating categories you can pull all the pages in that category onto other pages through blocks such as the Listing Block.
Create a Page Category
There are two ways to create a page category, they are listed as follows:
Creating a Page Category from the Dashboard Navigation
- From the Main Navigation Panel, click Pages > Page Categories.
- Type in the name of the page category you would like.
- Type the slug you want for the category, this is how the category will appear in the URL. The “slug” is the URL-friendly version of the name. It is usually all lowercase and contains only letters, numbers, and hyphens.
- Select a parent term from the dropdown menu if you want to create a hierarchy for your page categories. For example, the term Music would be the parent for the term Jazz.
