إعادة ترتيب الفئات وتعيين مواقع فئات ثابتة

[Discourse]

This guide explains how to set fixed positions for categories in Discourse, allowing you to manually order categories on your site.

Required user level: Administrator

Discourse typically orders categories based on activity, with the most recently active categories appearing at the top of your categories page and in the main navigation category dropdown. However, you can set fixed positions for your categories if you prefer a custom, static order. This guide will walk you through the process of enabling fixed category positions and reordering your categories.

Enabling fixed category positions

To set fixed positions for your categories, you need to adjust two site settings:

1. fixed category positions: This setting allows you to set a custom order for categories on the Categories page and in the main navigation dropdown.
2. fixed category positions on create: This setting applies your custom category order to the category selector in the composer.

To enable these settings:

1. Go to your site’s Admin area.
2. Navigate to Site Settings.
3. In the search box, type “fixed category positions” to find the relevant settings.
4. Enable the fixed category positions setting.
5. If desired, also enable the fixed category positions on create setting.
   
   

Reordering categories

Once you’ve enabled the necessary settings, follow these steps to reorder your categories:

1. Ensure you’re logged in as an admin.

2. Go to your site’s Categories page.

3. Click on the Categories admin dropdown menu.

4. Select the “Reorder Categories” option.
   

   

5. Use the Up and Down arrows to reorder your categories as desired.
   

   

6. Click the Save button to apply your changes.

You may need to perform a hard refresh of your browser window to see the updated order.

Results of reordering

After reordering, you’ll see the new category order in several places:

1. On the Categories page

2. In the main navigation category dropdown
   

   

3. In the composer’s category selector (if you enabled fixed category positions on create)
   

   

FAQs

Q: I don’t see the “Reorder Categories” option in the dropdown menu. Why?
A: Make sure you’ve enabled the fixed category positions setting in your site settings. This option will only appear once this setting is enabled.

Q: Do I need to enable both settings?
A: It depends on your needs. Enable fixed category positions if you want to set a custom order for the Categories page and main navigation dropdown. Additionally enable fixed category positions on create if you want this order to apply to the category selector in the composer as well.

Q: Why can’t I see my changes after reordering?
A: Try clearing your browser’s cache. While it isn’t usually necessary, it should resolve any issues with seeing the updated order.

مرحباً @Antony_UK

أعتقد أن @awesomerobot قصد أنه إذا انتقلت إلى صفحة /admin/site_settings الخاصة بك، فيمكنك بعد ذلك استخدام مربع البحث لإدخال جزء من إعداد الموقع أو كله. إنه مفيد حقًا للعثور على الإعداد الذي تريده دون الحاجة إلى المرور عبر جميع الإعدادات الأخرى.

عظيم. لقد سجلت الدخول إلى الموقع بصفتي مسؤولاً، ومع ذلك، فإن علامة التبويب “الفئات” لا تظهر كما هو موضح في الرابط الخاص بك؟ لا تظهر ميزة “إعادة ترتيب الفئات”؟ لقد سجلت الدخول بصفتي مسؤولاً من عنوان URL، www.esquireforum.com.

لكي يظهر هذا الخيار، تحتاج أولاً إلى تمكين إعداد الموقع fixed category positions من admin/settings

هل هناك أي حل بديل أو إعداد لفرز أو إعادة ترتيب الفئات الفرعية يدويًا في فئة معينة؟
