Manage categories

Create, rename, recolor, reorder, and delete the categories you use to organize folders.

All of your categories live in one place: the Manage categories dialog, where you create them, rename them, change their colors, reorder them, and delete the ones you don’t need.

Start from the Dashboard

  1. Sign in to ReiSearch and open the Dashboard.

  2. Select Folders from the left navigation.

  3. On the My Folders page, click the + button beside the category tabs.

Open the category manager

Click the + button in the Folders header to open “Manage categories.” Its description sums it up: “Your private categories for organizing folders. Each folder can be in one category. Drag to reorder.”

Create a category

  1. In the “New category” section, type a name.

  2. Pick a color from the swatches, or click “Custom colour” (the rainbow swatch) to choose any color.

    Full ReiSearch Folders workspace with the Manage categories dialog highlighted in context.

  3. Press Enter or click Add. The new category appears as a tab in the header.

Rename, recolor & reorder

  • Rename — double-click a category’s name, edit it, and press Enter. (Names must be unique — a duplicate shows “A category with this name already exists.”)
  • Recolor — click the colored dot on its row to open the “Category colour” picker and choose a preset or custom color.
  • Reorder — drag a row by its handle (the grip on the left) to change the order of the tabs.

Delete a category

  1. Hover a category row and click the trash icon.

  2. Confirm in the “Delete category?” dialog.

Note: Deleting a category is safe for your folders: “Folders in this category won’t be deleted — they’ll just become uncategorised.”
