Troubleshooting: Category Changes Reverting?
If your category changes aren’t saving, check accessibility rules:
- Public categories: Can contain public, internal, or private subcategories/articles.
- Internal categories: Can only contain internal or private content. (URL-Only categories act as internal.)
- Private categories: Can only contain private content and must have the same or fewer users/groups as the parent category.
For more details, see Overview: Accessibility.
Displaying Articles in Multiple Categories
You don’t need to duplicate content if an article belongs in more than one category. Helpjuice allows you to display a single article across multiple categories. Learn more here → How To Display Articles In Multiple Categories .
Best Practices
- Plan your category structure before moving content.
- Use the “display in multiple categories” feature instead of duplicating articles.
- Always verify accessibility rules when moving content between categories.
