After you’ve created a category, you’ll want to fill it up with your members. You can do this manually using the steps below, or automatically assign categories based on answers to profile questions.
To do this, click on the “Management” link from the Members section of your dashboard. You’ll see that you can pick and choose which members to place in this category from your Member Management page by checking the box by members’ names. Check the box(es) one at a time, or you can check the box next to where it says “Name” and select all members on your network (including or excluding yourself as the Network Creator), in order to assign everyone on your network to this brand new category.
This new category assignment will take effect automatically.
Once you assign a member (or members) to a category, you will see any badge or text you’ve added for that category appear on the member’s profile photo in almost every location where their profile photo appears. A couple of exceptions are in Chat and on the sign in and sign up pages. Here are a few featured members and an administrator in the Members page, complete with badges over their profile photos:
Notice there is also a submenu item for the featured (those with stars on their pictures) members, while there is none for the “Administrator” category. Pick and choose who to highlight, how and where.
