Você deseja configurar categorias e tags para suas páginas do WordPress, mas não sabe como começar?
As categorias e as tags ajudam a classificar as publicações do blog e facilitam a localização do que os usuários estão procurando. No entanto, por padrão, elas só estão disponíveis para posts, não para páginas.
Neste artigo, mostraremos a você como adicionar categorias e tags às páginas do WordPress, passo a passo.
Por que adicionar categorias e tags às páginas do WordPress?
A adição de categorias e tags às suas páginas do WordPress ajuda a mantê-las organizadas e facilita para os visitantes encontrarem o que estão procurando.
Por exemplo, se você tiver várias páginas de vendas para diferentes produtos em sua loja WooCommerce, poderá agrupá-las em uma categoria ampla e até mesmo em páginas de categorias secundárias.
Você pode fazer o mesmo com diferentes páginas de recursos de seus aplicativos e softwares. Por exemplo, o OptinMonster agrupa várias páginas de recursos na categoria “Recursos”.
As categorias e tags de página também podem ser úteis para a otimização de mecanismos de busca (SEO). Você ajudará os mecanismos de pesquisa a navegar pelo seu conteúdo e a entender a estrutura do seu site, facilitando a indexação e a classificação das suas páginas.
Por padrão, as categorias e tags são taxonomias do WordPress limitadas às publicações do seu blog. Portanto, normalmente, você só pode usá-las para publicações do WordPress. Mas com algumas etapas, você também pode aplicá-las às suas páginas.
Neste tutorial, mostraremos como adicionar categorias às páginas do seu site WordPress. Também explicaremos como adicionar tags às páginas do WordPress.
Como adicionar facilmente categorias e tags a páginas do WordPress
A maneira mais fácil para iniciantes de configurar categorias e tags do WordPress para suas páginas é usar o plug-in Páginas com categoria e tag. Trata-se de um plug-in gratuito do WordPress que funciona imediatamente, sem configurações adicionais.
A primeira coisa que você precisa fazer é instalar e ativar o plug-in. Para obter mais detalhes, consulte nosso guia sobre como instalar um plug-in do WordPress.
Depois de ativado, vá para Páginas ” Adicionar novo na área de administração do WordPress. Você verá que as tags e as categorias de postagem do WordPress agora estão disponíveis para suas páginas do WordPress.
Em seguida, você pode criar categorias e tags para suas páginas.
Para adicionar uma categoria, vá até a seção Páginas ” Categorias no painel do WordPress e insira o “Nome” e a“Slug” da categoria.
Depois disso, você pode rolar para baixo e selecionar uma“Categoria pai” para sua categoria.
Depois de inserir esses detalhes, basta clicar no botão “Add New Category” (Adicionar nova categoria).
Em seguida, você poderá visualizar a categoria recém-adicionada às suas páginas.
Se você quiser excluir uma categoria específica, basta clicar na caixa de seleção ao lado dela e selecionar “Delete” (Excluir) no menu suspenso Bulk Action (Ação em massa). Em seguida, clique no botão “Apply” (Aplicar).
Em seguida, você pode categorizar suas páginas do WordPress de acordo com as categorias que acabou de criar.
Para começar, basta editar ou criar uma nova página. No editor de conteúdo do WordPress, agora você pode selecionar o nome da categoria relevante na barra lateral à sua direita.
Por exemplo, criamos uma página de recursos e a marcamos na categoria “Recursos” no painel do lado direito.
Da mesma forma, você pode usar tags para sua página do WordPress no campo “Tags”. Se você quiser adicionar várias tags, basta separá-las usando uma vírgula.
Por exemplo, você pode adicionar palavras-chave e frases que ajudem a descrever seu conteúdo. Em nosso caso, adicionamos os termos “intenção de saída” e “OptinMonster” como tags.
Depois de selecionar sua categoria e adicionar tags, basta atualizar ou publicar sua página do WordPress. E pronto!

I used the Pages with category and tag plug in to create categories and assigned to my pages. Then updated my permalinks to /%category%/%postname%/ but the url still showing the page slug only, category slug not showing.
I read the comments by others, mostly talk about permalink to posts.
is it possible to show the category in the permalink of a page? that is the only reason for me to categorise the pages.
WPBeginner Support says
By default pages do not have the option to add categories so it sounds like you have a plugin or tool that is adding categories to your pages.

Hi, and thanks for valuable information. Does the use of this plugin mean that pages can have the same function as posts? For instance, can I make a portfolio grid containing pages instead of posts, or show several pages on a map instead of posts?
If the answer is no, is there a way to create hierarchical structure in posts? Because that what I am aiming for, a website with posts or pages in a hierarchical structure (e.g. homepage/page-a/page-a1, homepage/page-b/page-b4 etc.) where all the pages can be displayed and filtered via tags or categories in both listings and maps.
Much thankful for a reply!
Kind regards
WPBeginner Support says
It would depend on the specific function you would like but it can be a similar function to posts. For what you are looking for it would more likely be better to use subcategories which we cover in our guide below:

Hi, I am very grateful for this information, however unfortunately when I installed and activated the plugin it completley disfigured my “all pages” view on the dashboard , the letters identifying the page titles ran vertically down the page
thanks anyway
WPBeginner Support says
It sounds like you may have all possible fields showing on your all pages screen. If you use the screen options in the top-right of the screen you should be able to hide some information to prevent the letter scrolling on the page.

You can achieve this with code but by using a plugin it makes it easier to revert the change should you wish to do so. If you are concerned about the number of plugins on your site then we would recommend taking a look at our article below:

Hello,
On your recommendation we’ve been using this plugin. We love the features, but one thing is still bothering us. In the search results there are no categories showing. We use the Avada theme and would love to see categories in the results. Do you know how to fix it?
WPBeginner Support says
You would want to reach out to the support for your specific theme for including the categories in the display

I like to read your blogs because I found the solution for my query but I noticed that you suggest installing a plugin for the solution. is it possible for you to show the solution by sharing custom code, not by a plugin.
WPBeginner Support says
It depends on the issue, we do our best to add a method for using code instead of a plugin for those looking for that but not all issues are solved with a small amount of code. Plugins are also a collection of code so there’s not always a difference in the code we would show and the plugin we’re recommending.

Is there an advantage using pages over categories?

Hello,
I’m interested to know if there’s a way to make pages act as categories for SEO purposes. For example, if I create a new category ABC on my domain.com it will have this link, domain.com/categories/ABC. However, if I create a page with the slug ABC, it will have this link, domain.com/ABC. However, since it is not a category, search engines might treat it as a static page.
Is there a way I can convert the domain.com/ABC page to a category?

Thank you for your post, so the pages still considered as static pages?
If I create an “About” page and if I did not assign a category will continue to be static? And in the other hand make pages as post with content?

It should keep your pages as the static pages even if you add them to a category

But This plugin hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress.

Hi. I am having a problem with assigning a new category that (for reasons over which I have no control) was given the same category name but with a different slug, and I am supposed to ‘pull’ these objects to the new category. But because it has the same name, although a different slug, WP doesnt seem to differentiate and keeps slinging the files into the old category. It defaults to the original. If there were a global function, other than the categories plugin, so that I could select the files and reassign from one category to another, bcause when I try to do so, only the old one shows up (even though the new one clearly exists).
WPBeginner Support says
If you’re trying to rename the category, rather than transferring the posts individually you could rename the category: https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-properly-rename-categories-in-wordpress/

Hi, i am using the events manager plugin which creates individual pages for each event created. The plugin settings give an option of showing events as pages or posts. However in both the cases, while creating the event it only gives an option of adding or selecting an ‘event category’ and not the ‘categories that i create for my blog posts or pages.
Is there a plugin available so i can add my default post category to my events as well, so the events also show up in blog category archives?
Ghislain Poirier says
And how do we add the categories to the pages?
I have the category functions showing in the wordpress backend menu, but it is only a shortcut to the create new category section…
It is still not allowing me to tell what page is in what category or am I missing something?
Pranav Mohan says
This seems to assign pages to various categories, however, i am interested in finding out how to assign a category to a page so that when I search for the page, all the posts linked to the category show up.
Susan Taunton says
Hi WPBeginner!
Post Tags and Categories is flagged by WordPress now as not having been updated for 12 months and is only tested for up to WordPress version 4.5.13. I just wonder if there not a child theme functions.php addition that could accomplish making pages taggable? Or is there a more up to date plugin that accomplishes this?
Thank you so much for your many, many excellent tutorials.

Xavier says
Same question than Suzan.
I might use the php code for this feature in you have it by any chance.
BTW Suzan,
I found this plugin that might do the trick but I didnt test it myself and I would like WPBeginner opinion on that :
Category to Pages WUD
Hope this help

Hi, was super excited for this plugin but it didn’t work. It installed the categories but didn’t link them… I am so sad! Is there and up to date version?!
Carol says
I guess this info is outdated for the latest WP version. Is there an alternative plugin? I need to have this and it should be in WP by default, not requiring a plugin!
Complaints on the plugin’s site that their latest version does not work. When I do a search by different ways within my own plugin page for ‘new’, “no such plugin”.

No, the information and the plugin mentioned in the article still work perfectly. We have updated the article with new screenshots.

Jonathan Hostetler says
Thanks for this tip! I tried the plugin you recommended “Post Tags and Categories for Pages” and it worked flawlessly. This is super helpful for me because we need to use pages (as opposed to posts) for certain projects because our visual editor plugin is only compatible with pages, but I also need to be able to assign categories to our content.
So, problem solved. Thanks again!

Fabio says
Any info about compatibility with WordPress 4.4 ?
Renier says
@Fabio
I found some problems in WP4.4. For some reason none of the ‘article posts’ in a category/post shows on archives (2016 theme). By deactivating obviously all ‘article posts’ shows, but not ‘article pages’ (or at least this is what I suspect). In short, archives doesn’t show all the pages.
Does anyone else experience this problem? I can’t seem to find any literature on the topic. Maybe Post tags and categories for pages plugin needs an update?
Tor Ivan Boine says
awesome! Weird that this needs a plugin
gerhard says
Very useful feature and a very good explanation on video!

Denis says
I have a question,
I have a website, and I do have categories pages, and TAG pages too,
Category pages are shown as 10 posts and they have next button – previous button,
But TAG pages don’t have NEXT BUTTON – PREVIOUS BUTTON, and they show only 10 posts related with the tag…
It is really crucial issue for me and I really need to have this TAG pages with next button, previous button
Do you guys have any idea that why CATEGORY pages do have these buttons but TAG pages don’t have?
How can I solve this issue?
Thanks so much in advance.

Tanuj Mandale says
is there a reverse of this,
I mean while creating a new post, instead of categories I want pages (to choose from). Means as a post is associates to category, it must associate to page.
Is it Possible, please reply.

Seems like products are a custom post type added to your site by a plugin or theme. This custom post type is not associated with tags. See our guide on Custom Post Types and Custom Taxonomies.

Hi Guys,
Thanks for this info. Was wondering if this could be done.
Has anyone found that by adding categories to pages has increased rankings in Google if they also change permalink to – /%category%/%postname% ?

michello says
No, because the urls don’t change, I mean the category name does not show up in the url
So this plugin is half-baked.

Mark Breese says
So, as you say, there’s a plugin for that… So is there a plugin… or shortcode that will let me show the pages with a certain category as a list of links… or maybe a list with excerpts and featured image? And I am using Ninja Page Categories and Tags plugin actually.
My theme has a short code for showing posts in a category, but it does not pick up the pages in category and show them. (the theme is Weaver II Pro)
Les says
I have to correct my first post. The categories used to appear on the right-hand side of the page.
Les says
SOLVED: I found out what the problem was. In the “Screen Options” I had categories unchecked. I placed a check in the box and the categories are back.
Thanks for a great plugin.
Les says
My categories stopped showing on my add pages screen. They used to appear on the left side of the page. Even if I create a new page category, it won’t show up. Do you have any idea what could be causing this?
Thanks in advance.

Ignore previous comment. This is the correct one.
Hi. How can I show a listing of pages with their title/featured image/more?
Actually I only need the query to display a list of pages related to a category (pages I created and assigned them to a category) doesn’t seem to work. Instead, it brings only posts.
Editorial Staff says
In your query make sure you are searching for both post types: posts and pages.
