Configure Aircraft Categories

All aircraft are categorised by “type”, regardless of the manufacturer. This simplifies the listing and searching of available aircraft.

Currently, the module supports 8 different categories. Each can be set to:

• Active
  If a category is set to inactive, all aircraft in the category will be hidden from the website
• Home Page
  If a category is set to “Home Page” and there are aircraft in the category, the category will be displayed on the homepage. Providing the Aircraft Category block is activated on the homepage
• You have the option to change the category image.
• You will also define some basic SEO information and
• Set some basic information/content to describe the category
  The full XMS Systems text editor is available so you can add more images and a slider if you wish to expand the aesthetics of the category page.
