  • To Add a new term.:
  • Click on the Add Term button.
  • Enter the name (required).
  • Enter a description (optional).
  • Expand the Relation section to nest the new term under an existing term.
  • Enter a URL Alias if you want the URL path of the new Term to be different than the default. For example, if you are adding a new Term called “Customer Support Team”, the default URL would be yourdomain.georgia.gov/customer-support-team. You can manually change this URL by adding a URL Alias like /customer-support (or any other path you choose) to this field. Your new URL would then be yourdomain.georgia.gov/customer-support.
  • Click Save.
  • You can also Edit, Delete, or Clone existing terms.
  • Under Operations, select an option beside the term name.
