Categories No clue as to how to start

Getal antwoorde: 3
I see no way to manage categories in my new installation ( MOODLE 195+ ).
Do I have to add a module ?
Please point a "newbie in categories" to some help files.

Thanks

I didn't look in the docs, but just go to your administration block->Courses->Add/edit courses, then turn editing on and you have the category management tools.

Hi Gus
You will also require the Manage categories moodle/category:manage capability allowed for the role you are assigned to on the front page (If you are an Administrator you should have this but it's worth checking just in case!).
I hope this helps
Cheers
Teresa

What I do is creating a flat html personal page (as admin) in the report zone

/admin/report/adminlinks/index.php

I borrow the protection code from another report page, to keep this page mine
(as admin)

On this page I paste link to pages I often use and are (in my personal view) not easy organised in the admin tree:

Your example will be a link to:

http://yourwebsitadress/course/index.php?categoryedit=on



Most of these links are not insecure, but protected by Moodle:
if you try this one and you are logged in as admin, you get access.

Otherwise you must login and only if you login as admin you get edit access rights.
