Add topic categories

[Former user]

Our current topic categories (education, environment, health etc.) will need to be expanded at some point. Is this easily possible?

For example, can we add an 'Other' category, because certain issues (like campaign finance reform), which are right now super trendy, are in categories not included yet.

If it is very easy to change the categories, then I will make an improved list asap.

I remember we defined a list of categories... I think you sent us and email. For now I think we must use only those. In the future yes, we can expand the list from the cms and updating the front-end

@enricosoft @Brotrob Yes. Very easy.

All you have to do its to login on the admin site and add them.

http://api-dev.udemi.org/admin/ .

http://api-test.udemi.org/admin/

Simply use your email and password for one of the users robert, robertg , robertfb on test.

We can add our users on production and we can manage that kind of information for an admin screen.

Cool Andre. I just registred a non facebook account on test.udemi.org - using [e-mail]

Can you add this account to the admin site on test? currently I cannot log in with these credentials...

If adding a category will be too difficult in the end, I will defenitely rename the 6 we have, because of new insights on what is important to people....

I @Brotrob It should be done now. You should be able to enter the admin site now. Please NEVER rename categories :).

Those are part of the MDM(Master data management) and should never be changed in any circumstance.

Hi Andre - it still does not seem to work, and I cannot log in. Are you on Skype?
