Categories Tree Structure

Navigate to > Administration > Overview > Data Structures & Workflows > Categories to open the table overview for the existing categories. You can use the upper selection list to select the system language to be used for the table overview. The overview contains the following columns:

	This column is used to move categories within the tree structure: In the line of the category that you want to move, click the icon in this column. Drag the category to the point in the tree structure where you want to add it using drag and drop. Note the instructions displayed on the cursor.
	In this column, you sort the categories alphabetically. To do so, click the icon in the line of the category in this column. All the sub-categories are sorted: : In ascending order from A to Z : In descending order from Z to A
Categories	The name of the category is displayed. You can display and hide the sub-categories using the Plus and Minus signs.
Assets	This displays the number of assets linked to the category.
Modules	This displays the modules in which the category can be viewed.
Translations	This displays whether a translation is available for the category name: gray icon = no translation is available, black icon = at least one translation is available.

Note

You can display or hide the Assets, Modules, and Translations columns in the table overview. To do so, move the cursor to the header line in the area of the column Categories, Assets, Modules, or Translations. The ▾ interface element appears on the right-hand edge of the cell. Choose ▾> Columns and deactivate or activate the checkboxes for the columns based on your desired display.
