Configuring News Page Category Selection

The Category Picker controls which categories of articles appear on a specific public News & Press page.

These settings are managed from the public page while the page is open in Edit mode.

The Category Picker controls which article categories can appear on the public News & Press page.

The Category Picker affects only the News & Press page you are editing. It does not change the article records themselves.

When Select All is on, the page can display articles from all available categories.

When Select All is off, individual category toggles become available. Turn on only the categories that should appear on that page.

Use category selection when different News & Press pages should show different groups of articles. For example, one page might show news related to product releases, while another page shows only press releases dealing with community outreach.

Articles assigned to unchecked categories are hidden from that page, even if they are published.

Configure Category Selection

To configure category selection:

1. Open the public News & Press page in Edit mode.
2. Open Category Picker in the module settings.
3. Leave Select All on to include every category, or turn it off and choose specific categories.
4. Click Submit.

Category Picker settings work together with the article's assigned categories. If an article is not assigned to a category selected for the page, it will not appear on that page.
