Categories and terms

Content on this website can be organized using categories through a system called "taxonomy". A taxonomy has different "terms" that are used as categories for content. When you're adding content, you might find a drop-down list of topics. By selecting one, you choose where on the site to categorize your content. If this seems hard to relate to, you can think of topics as being like folders on your hard drive--they help to organize content, so that you can find similar things in the same place.
