Category Folders#

With category folders, you organize categories within object types in a custom folder structure. You can create your own folders, move categories, and adjust the order.

Permissions#

You need the Category Folders permission in the Administration area. The person group admin has this permission by default.

Usage#

  1. First, select an object type.
  2. Use one of the following options:
    • Rearrange: Move each category to the desired position via drag and drop.
    • Move element: Hover over a category and click the button. A popup opens where you select the target location.
    • Add: Create a new category folder with a custom name.

Rearrange button

With the Rearrange button, categories or folders can be quickly moved to any position via drag & drop. You can also use the Move button to open the Move element popup.

Move element

The Move element button is preferred when a category should be moved into a folder. The function also offers a search function for categories.

Add category folder

Click the Add button to create a category folder and select the storage location of the folder.

Sorting

Sorting of categories is disabled when an object type has been edited with the Category Folders function, since the configured order should not be changed.

Reset category folders for an object type

With the Reset button, the changes are undone and the created category folders are deleted.
