Disable, Rename, and Map Categories

Manage, Disable, and Map Registered Categories

Registered categories are categories registered by WordPress Core, your active theme, or your plugins. These are added programmatically, as opposed to creating your own pattern category in the admin, which is stored in the database.

With Pattern Wrangler, you can disable, map, and rename these registered categories.

Registered Categories Can be Disabled, Renamed, and Mapped

One use case of mapping is consolidating all of a theme's patterns into just one category or selectively disabling categories.

The result can be a much more organized a streamlined pattern experience with the available categories.
