Introduction

Content categories in Muvi help you organize your content library by grouping similar types of content (e.g., Movies, TV Shows, Documentaries, Podcasts, and Live Streams). Categories improve navigation and make it easier for users to discover content on your platform. This guide explains how to add and manage content categories in the Muvi CMS.

• From the left-hand menu, navigate to “Content Management” --> “Content Settings”.
• Click on the “Categories” tab.

Step 2: Add New Category

• Click on Add New.
• Enter a Category Name (e.g., Movies, TV Shows, Kids Content).
• Click on Save to add the new category.
• The category will now appear in your category list and can be assigned to content while adding or editing it.

Step 3: Adding a Sub-Category
