A Guide to Effective Category and Tag Management in Content Organization
Categories help organize collection items by subject, making it easier for visitors to find content. Both categories and tags can be added to most collection items, but each collection page maintains its own unique set.
Categories vs. Tags:
- Categories: Used for broad subject organization (e.g., Tops, Bottoms, Accessories)
- Tags: More flexible, keyword-based organization (e.g., year, month, specific topics)
Supported Items for Categories and Tags:
- Blog posts
- Events
- Products
- Videos (categories only)
- Album tracks
- Gallery images
