Categories are displayed on the [[Board Index]] and are used to organize boards and make it easier for viewers to find their way around. In essence categories are groups of boards that span a subject.
'''Categories''' contain boards and are displayed on the [[Board index (term)|board index]]. They can be used to create subject headers to organize boards and make it easier for viewers to find their way around. Categories contain only boards, never topics or other categories.  The administrator can enable category "[[{{Latest docs}}Boards#Create_New_Category|collapse]]" which allows you to hide categories that do not interest you.
 
Categories cannot contain other categories or topics, but can contain any number of [[Parent board|parent boards]]. Categories cannot contain [[Child board|child boards]] because child boards must be children (inside) of other boards.
 
If enabled by the [[Administrator]], categories can be collapsed and expanded, allowing users to hide categories that do not interest them.
 
By default, you are limited to creating 255 categories. In the unlikely event that more categories are needed, this limit can be easily increased.
