Chunk30:Add Category Details

Category Details

• Title. The Title for the item.

• Alias. The internal name of the item. Normally, you can leave this blank and Joomla! will fill in a default value. The default value is the Title or Name in lower case and with dashes instead of spaces. You may enter the Alias manually. The Alias should consist of lowercase letters and hyphens (-). No blank spaces or underscores are allowed. The Alias will be used in the URL when SEF is activated. Note: If the title consists of non-Latin characters, the Alias will default to the current date and time, for example "2009-02-11-17-54-38".
• Description. The description for the item. Category, Subcategory and Web Link descriptions may be shown on web pages, depending on the parameter settings. These descriptions are entered using the same editor that is used for Articles.

• Article. Click to quickly add an 'Article' link to the description with a popup window.
• Image. Click to quickly add an 'Image' to the description with a popup window.

• Toggle editor. If you are using the TinyMCE editor, a Toggle editor button will show just below the edit window. This button allows you to toggle between the TinyMCE editor and No Editor.
