Categories in WordPress help organize and classify your content, making it easier to navigate between different pages and sections.
It’s very simple to create a category in WordPress by following the steps below.
First, access the WordPress admin panel with your credentials and navigate to the Categories section.
To add a new category, search for and click on “Add New Category.” A form will appear where we can enter the details of the new category.
Then we need to fill in the category details.
- Category Name.
- Slug (Friendly URL): WordPress will automatically generate a slug based on the name. We can customize it if we want.
- Description: We can provide a brief description of the category (optional).
Finally, click on “Add New Category” to save the changes.
Now we have a new category created on our WordPress site.
Finally, we can assign the new category to our posts or entries from the WordPress entry editor as shown in the following image.
I hope this helps you. Have a great day!
