Categories are qualities which are assigned to events. Every event must have one and only one category. An event's category determines whether or not it appears within a given shortcut. Shortcuts are collections of events organized by category. Examples of shortcuts include your site's home page, the pages within your site's shortcut dropdown... ... your mobile app home page, and your mobile app shortcuts: Your desktop and mobile app shortcuts are managed independently in Radmin. They have different functionality and can feature different content. Desktop shortcuts are managed in Radmin -> Content -> Shortcuts. They include your home page, whose title is 'What to do'. Please never delete your home page shortcut or change its permalink, or your site will crash. Please also refrain from changing any other existing desktop shortcut titles or permalinks without first consulting us, as there may be SEO disadvantages to doing so. Your mobile app shortcuts are managed in Radmin -> Mobile -> Shortcuts. Please note that creating or modifying a mobile app shortcut will have no effect on desktop, and vice versa. Desktop Shortcuts Within the setup screen for each desktop shortcut, you can make decisions about how the shortcut functions.
Mobile (App) Shortcuts Though they function independently, your mobile shortcuts have similar functionality to your desktop ones. Again, a note that modifying a mobile app shortcut has no effect on your desktop shortcuts. You will notice that there is no 'Display' option on the mobile apps. Once a shortcut is created, it will be visible in the apps. You will also notice that there is no meta description, since these shortcuts will not be searchable on web. Lastly, you will notice that there is no 'Show Upcoming?' feature, as that functionality is not supported on the mobile apps at this time. Everything else works the same as web, except:
All mobile app settings apply to both iOS and Android. There is no way to effect one and not the other. Categories Your Categories are managed in Radmin -> Events -> Categories. Go there to create, edit or delete categories. For the most part, Categories are only used for internal purposes. The only time your users will ever see a Category is when they add events. If you want to prevent users from seeing and adding events to a certain category, you can edit that category (in Radmin -> Events -> Categories) and mark it as 'Hidden'. Hidden categories can still be included and excluded from Shortcuts as normal; The only difference is that users will not be able to add events to hidden categories on the front end.
