Subcategory Display Types

Default categories support four subcategory display types:

Icon panels

Displays each category and its icon in a panel. If no icon has been added to the category, we'll display one of four default icons. With this layout, you can:

  • Set how many categories you'd like to appear per row
  • Limit how many categories to show
  • Decide whether to show the category description

This is our most popular subcategory display type!

Title and description

Displays category titles and description in a simple grid format with three categories to a row.

Content list

Displays the title of each subcategory with a list of links to the first five subcategories or articles in the categories. The total number of subcategories and articles are displayed in parentheses with a link to view all. There is an option to show all child content rather than the first five.

Subcategory panels

Displays subcategory titles in plain square panels with borders, three categories to a row. Does not display category icons in the panels.

See Control subcategory display for more details on these options.
