# Categories

> Control category visibility, main-category placement, translations, event notes, and event hiding rules.

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Search, filters, and active events" icon="search" defaultOpen>
    The table lets you search categories and sort by category name or active event count. The active event count is important because it shows how much content a category change might affect before you flip any switches.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Main category" icon="layout-grid">
    Turn this on when a tag should appear as a top-level discovery category. Once you filter to main categories, the admin also unlocks the sort tool so you can choose their display order.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Hide Category vs Hide Events" icon="eye-off">
    `Hide Category` removes the tag from category discovery surfaces. `Hide Events` is stronger and hides every event carrying that category from the public site. Use `Hide Events` carefully because it impacts event visibility, not just navigation.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Translations" icon="languages">
    The language button opens translation inputs for every supported non-English locale: German, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Chinese, Japanese, Arabic, Russian, Italian, Polish, and Korean. English stays the source label.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Event page note" icon="square-pen">
    The edit action adds a plain-text note to event pages that match the category. Use it for category-wide context that belongs in the event Rules area. Leave it empty to remove the note; HTML is not accepted.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Sports category behavior" icon="trophy">
    Sports event categories are generated automatically during [Create Event](/admin/events#create-event) when you choose the sports fields. That means sports categories are not maintained exactly like regular manual tags.
