How to create Category?
What is Category?• Category is one of the pre-
defined taxonomies in WordPress. It is used to sort and group content into different sections.
• A website publishing content on a variety of topics can divide their website into sections using categories.
Example: A news website can have categories for
articles filed under News, Opinion, Weather, Sports,
etc.
If no category is specified for a post then the post is
automatically filed into the default category. In a new
WordPress installation, the default category
is ‘Uncategorized’.
