New Categories?

Post by SamanthaGordon »

Hello everyone,

I am new to the site and really looking forward to working with CC. After reading through many of the forum posts I just wanted to say that the collaborative spirit in the forum is really refreshing!

I do have a quick question. I have a couple of articles on international business and business travel tips that really go together, but I wasn't sure how to assign them in the categories. Under the business category there is no subcategory that fits. Is there an opportunity to add an "international" subcategory to "business" or are the categories fixed?

I submitted both articles classified under completely separate categories in order to fit them into the existing grouping system. Obviously it's not a problem to keep it as is, but if there is an opportunity to create a new category, I would love to reclassify the articles.

Thanks,
Sam

Our category system was recently reworked to pare it down from the monstrosity it used to be, and therefore, new categories aren't being added. Most articles are found by search, so the "business" category will suffice.

Thanks,
Ed

To direct customers to another article they might be interested in, you could use the short summary, and add something like: If this article interests you, you might also like xxx. As far as I know, this would be acceptable to CC. I sometimes cross refer to and from photographs this way.
