News and event categories, URL prefixes

Categories are managed in Settings on the News → Categories and Events → Categories tabs. A categorised news item or event has an address starting with the category (for example /references/my-first-story); content without a category lives under the news or events prefix, which you change with URL settings.

Categories

• Create one with New category. The name is required in the primary language; other languages fall back to it when left empty.
• A news item or event belongs to at most one category. Pick it on the Meta tab of the content's settings panel, or row by row in the Settings list.
• The category name appears on the cards, and the News list and Event list blocks can be narrowed to the categories you pick.
• After Delete, the category's content is kept, just without a category.

Categories and addresses

A categorised item's address starts with its category: /category/the-item-slug. So if you move an item to another category, or rename or delete a category, the item's address changes, and a permanent (301) redirect is created from the old address automatically. An item can also have its own path: if you write a first segment into Slug per locale (for example latest/my-first-story), it wins over the category.

News and events prefix

Uncategorised news lives under /news/ and events under /events/ by default (/hirek/ and /esemenyek/ in Hungarian). The URL settings button on the News and Events lists changes them per language, for example to /blog/ or /programme/.

• Only lowercase letters, digits and hyphens are allowed, no slash.
• The two prefixes cannot be the same, and cannot be a language code or a word the system reserves.
• If you already have published content, switch on Redirect old URLs to the new prefix (301) so old links keep working.
