    Hi SE Masters,

    Is there a way to organize Categories for Blogs, Groups, Videos, etc.

    I would like to be able to arrange them. When I add new they just go on the bottom.

    Thanks always.

    No but it would be a good feature. To rearrange them, you would need to go in the database.

    Yes. This would a great feature. Or at least if they would sort by spelling.

    Yes but I would experiment on a dev site. I'm not in a db atm to see if there are any dependencies.

    Great! Did you double check any posts that may have been in those categories to make sure nothing got messed up?
