Categories

The Calendar tool uses categories to help you organize your events by their common themes. For example, a school may have the following types of events: athletics, dances, holidays, performances, and assemblies. By categorizing each event in your calendar, you can create different views of your calendar on your webpage. As with attributes, the best practice is to determine your event categories before creating your calendar and creating your events.

To create your event categories, follow these steps:

1. Click Manage Categories.
   
2. Enter your first category in the text field and click Add to Category List.
   
3. Repeat the process for each category you will use to organize your events.

Once you have your attributes and categories finalized, you are ready to actually create events.
