Manage them under **Administration → Content → Blog → Categories**. ### Fields * **Internal name** — only visible in the administration. Helps you tell categories apart. * **Name** — shown in the shop. Translatable. * **Active** — inactive categories appear neither in the filter nor in listings. ### Where categories appear * In the **filter sidebar** of the magazine overview — as a checkbox list with multi-select. * In the **category badges** on an article detail page — clicking a badge shows every post in that category. * In the **"Posts by category"** element for home pages or landing pages. ### How many categories are allowed? * **Basic**: 1 category * **Advanced**: 5 categories * **Premium**: unlimited Categories above the limit remain in the database. They simply aren't surfaced in the shop — an upgrade re-enables them immediately. ## Tags Tags are managed under **Administration → Content → Blog → Tags**. ### Fields * **Name** — display name in the shop. Translatable. * **Active** — inactive tags are hidden. ### Where tags appear * In the **filter sidebar** as a second checkbox list, freely combinable with categories. * In the **"Tags"** element on the article detail page. ### How many tags are allowed? * **Basic**: 1 tag * **Advanced**: 5 tags * **Premium**: unlimited ## The filter sidebar in the shop Inside the magazine filter you can freely combine categories, tags and authors — all chosen criteria are AND-joined. The filter updates the list instantly without reloading the page. Active filters appear as small chips below the filter sidebar; clicking the close icon removes that filter. "Reset all" clears every filter at once. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.premsoft.de/en/plugins/blog/create-and-edit-blog-posts/categories-tags.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
