Installation edit

To install, simply add the following to your common.js file:

Use edit

To get started, click on "Start CatMan" from the left "Wiki tools" toolbar. This will open CatMan. The first screen allows you to modify the categories, while the second screen allows you to input an edit summary. The categories you add and remove will be added to the edit summary as well.

Managing Categories edit

Under the "Categories" tab, you can add and remove categories. It is pretty straightforward; to remove an existing category, click on the trash. To undo the removal of that category, click on the arrow (provided that the category was on the page prior).

Add categories using the box at top. Search will automatically find matching categories that you can select from. To add sort keys, use the pipe character as if you were adding them to the wiki page.
