How do the Categories of Activities management work in Jimani?

Answer

With Categories you divide your activities into groups, for example sports, workshops or children's parties. In the widget the guest first chooses a category and then an activity. The Categories tab is only in Activities management if the setting Categories for your activities is on.

Where to find it

Activities management > Categories tab > plus button > Categories (/Activities)

Explanation

The Add category window asks for a name, a description, an image and the activities that belong to it. The Update category window has the same parts and the explanation Manage the category. In the overview you can drag the tiles, filter by activity and use the Actions menu. The step-by-step version is in How do I divide my activities into categories?.
