2 In the Enable Manual Sorting Option area, select Manual for Categories, Sub-Categories, and Keyword Tags, and
then click OK.

4 Drag the selected items to a new location by doing one of the following:
•
To reorder keyword tags within a category or subcategory, drag the tag until you see a gray line, and then release
the mouse button. The tag will appear directly under the gray line.
•
To move a tag to a new category, drag the tag over the category you want to move it to; when the category becomes
highlighted, release the mouse button.
•
To reorder categories or subcategories, drag the category or subcategory until you see a gray line. When you release

when the destination category or subcategory becomes highlighted, release the mouse button.
