How to add a new category in my collections at prusaprinters.org?

Hi all,

I certainly feel really dump asking this, but how can I add a new category to my collections at prusaprinters.org? I have 9 categories in my collections already, so apparently I was able to create these. But now I am desperately trying to find a "add new category" button or something like that, but can't find it.

Would be great if some good soul could help me out here.

Thanks in advance, Herbert

Go to your collections page and click "create new collection"? Unless I've missed something you can't add categories, you create new collections each time.

Hi Gordon, thanks for replying to may questions, but I am still desperate. I go to my collections page as you said, and I look for some button that says something like "add" or "create", just like you said. I have even used my browsers (Chrome) search function on that page. But the only hit I get on "create" is the create button in the top line, which allows me to create a new print, a new group or a thingiverse input.

Could you do me a favor and look on your account if you see such a button and point out to me where it is? I don't know If it is of any help, but I have added a screenshot of how my page looks like (the scale is reduced to get all content of the page on one screen).

Thanks so much for helping, I feel like total newbie here (which I am not 😉

Herbert

It looks as though you can only have a maximum of 9 collections.

I had 8 and had a button to create a new collection (it appears just above your Games collection). Once I created a new collection to give me 9 in total, that button no longer appears.

Hi all and thank for protecting my sanity 😉

That sounds like reb has actually found the reason for me not having a "create new collection" button. On the other hand I find it rather strange that

a) one should be limited to nine collection, which is really not a lot if you keep your stuff well organized

b) that the button simply disappears, rather than indicating that any kind of limit is reached

Therefore I have taken the liberty to open a new thread which directly asks the question if there is an upper limit at 9 collections:

https://forum.prusa3d.com/forum/english-forum-general-discussion-announcements-and-releases/is-the-number-of-collections-at-prusaprinter-org-limited-to-9/

Thanks a gain for the support, I really appreciate how people in this community help each other out.

Best regards, Herbert
