News & Blog: Categories

News and blog articles can be grouped by category. The default categories are Press and Headlines, but you can add, edit or delete any category at any time.

To edit an existing category, click the pencil icon in the far right.

To delete a category, click the garbage can icon in the far right. Note, deleting a category will not delete the individual articles within this category; however, you may have to re-categorize these articles to get them to display properly on the front end.

To add a new category for your news articles, click "Create Category" in the left column. Here you can give your category a name (required) and upload a representative image for it (optional). The image may or may not display on the front end depending your website's unique design. If you choose to upload an image, don't forget to give the image an appropriate alt tag and title tag. For more info on successful ALT tags, read our blog article here.

Click the orange "Create" button in the upper right to save your new category into the database.
