Reply To: Mingle forum import
A ‘category’ is a parent container for your forums
eg.
– Hardware
— HP
— Acer
— Dell
-Software
— Microsoft
— Apple
— Google
In the above example both ‘Hardware’ and ‘Software’ are the categories with forums beneath in the hierarchy.
So if you don’t want a ‘parent’ category for your Subforum A,Subforum B & Subforum C then you don’t need to worry about it and your forum structure would look like this:
– Subforum A
– Subforum B
– Subforum C
If you do decide you want a ‘parent’ to put these forums in you can create it before or after the forum import, it doesn’t matter, you simply edit each forum and in the forum settings you can choose the ‘parent’ forum/category, worst case scenario is three quick edits.
