Creating personal document categories

Depending on how the administrator configured the system, there are up to 3 types of categories that you can create in Kentico:

• Personal categories - these categories belong to a specific user only, however, you can use them across all available sites.
• Global categories - these can be used across all available sites. You can create these when assigning documents to categories.
• Site-specific categories - these can be used only on the site on which you created them. You can create these when assigning documents to categories.

To create a personal category

1. Open the My profile application.

2. Switch to the Categories tab.

3. (Optional) If you want to create the new category as a subcategory, click on an existing category in the panel to the left.

   

4. Click on New category ().

5. Fill in the details of the new category.

   

6. Click on Save.

The system creates the new category. You can now assign documents to the category.
