Categories allow you to better organize how your courses are displayed to your users. When using categories, courses are sorted alphabetically within their respective Category.
To create categories, either as an Administrator or an Instructor, you have two options:
A. Create them from your Administrator view
B. Create them from the course settings
A. From your Administrator view/panel
1. Login to your portal as an Administrator.
2. Click Categories (1).
3. Click Add category (2).
4. Give your category a Name (3).
5. Select a Parent category (4) if the category you need to add is a subcategory of an existing one.
6. Set a Price (5) for selling courses in a category as a bundle.
7. Click Save (6).
B. From the course settings
Login to your portal as an Administrator or an Instructor and follow these steps:
1. Click Courses (1) and then Add course (2).
| Note: You may also choose to edit one of the existing courses and proceed to the next steps. |
2. Click on the Course options (3) button.
3. Click Select a category (4).
4. Give your category a name and either click it or press Enter to add it (5).
5. Fill the rest of the details and click Save (6).
| Note: When creating a course, if no category is selected or created, TalentLMS will automatically put the course under the General category. |
