# Sections

The **Sections** page organizes your blog articles by major theme (for example News, Tips, Tutorials). Come here whenever you want to create a new category, group several articles under the same theme, edit a blog's title or description, or reorder the categories as they appear on the site.

Each article can belong to several categories, and a category can contain subcategories to refine the organization further.

The dashboard is shown in French, with English captions.

## Section list

This section presents the full hierarchy of your [articles](https://docs.vivlab.com/en/sections/blogs-articles.md). The **first item** is the blog itself (title, description and image set in [**Settings**](https://docs.vivlab.com/en/sections/blogs-settings.md)), click it to edit this general information.

Click **Create a section** to add one at the root. To create a sub-section, hover over an existing section then click **Add a sub-section**.

Click on an existing section to edit its name, description or image, disable it or delete it. A disabled section is no longer accessible from the site, but the articles attached to it stay live.
