# Service categories

> How to create and manage service categories

## Open categories

1. Go to **Services** → **Categories** (Flokkar) in the menu
2. You see a list of all categories

## New category

1. Click **New category** (Nýr flokkur)
2. Fill in name and description
3. Set sort order if you want a custom order
4. Save

## Edit a category

Click a category in the list to edit details or translations.

## Active and inactive

Each category can be **Active** (Virkt) or **Inactive** (Óvirkt). Inactive categories do not appear on the site.

## How categories appear on the site

Under **General settings** → **Services page** (Þjónustusíða) you can choose:

* **Categories** — visitors see categories first, then services within each
* **Flat list** — all services in one list

<Tip>
  Use categories if you have several types of services (e.g. "Consulting", "Courses", "Products").
</Tip>

## Next step

* [Services](/en/05-services/services) — add individual services within categories
