Categories are used to classify events and tasks. For example, you could use a 'Meeting' category for all meetings with your colleagues or customers in your company. By default, eXo Platform provides 6 available categories in Calendar: All, Calls, Meeting, Holiday, Clients, Anniversary. You can add and view events/tasks in default categories. In addition, you also can edit, delete default categories or create new categories by yourself.
To manage categories, click 
, then select Add Event Category from the drop-down menu.
The Event Categories form will appear.
Simply enter the category name (that does not contain special characters, for example #,$) in the Event Category field, then click to add this category.
Edit a category by clicking
. Next, enter a new name in the Event Category field, then click to apply your changes.
Delete a category by clicking
. Next, click in the confirmation message.
Note
The events/tasks under the deleted categories are still kept. These events will then be auto-assigned to the default All category.
