How to add, edit, and organize News Categories under Site Management > Settings > News in Edlio CMS.

News categories help organize your school's news content, making it easier for visitors to find relevant information. Only administrators have access to manage news categories.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Navigate to Site Management

Open your main CMS admin hamburger menu and go to Site Management → Settings (or click Settings in your main navigation).

Step 2: Access News Settings

Click on the News tab in the settings sidebar on the left.

Step 3: Add, Edit, or Delete a Category

  • To Add: Click the Add News Category button, enter a category title, select its category order, and click Save.

  • To Edit: Click the category title or the Pencil icon to update the title or order.

  • To Delete: Click the Trash can icon next to that category. Note: If news stories are currently assigned to this category, reassign or remove them before deleting.

Important Reminder

Always remember to save after adding each category. Your changes will not be preserved unless you click the Save button.

What's Next?

Once you've created your news categories, you can begin organizing your news articles by assigning them to the appropriate categories when creating or editing news posts.
