Hi!  I wasn't sure where to post this, so, if it's in the wrong spot just move it. πŸ˜€  I made a huge mistake when setting up my archive.  I listened to someone I probably shouldn't have.  They indicated they could get allot of authors from different fandoms to post at my site.  Therefor, when I set it up I set up a general Fanfiction Category and placed the fandom under it.  However, this person did squat all in attracting new authors and my interest is really only Harry Potter.  Luckily, I don't have a huge number of fic's posted at my site.  What I want to do now is just go with HP fandom, cause that's what I know.

So, my problem is that I want to move my HP sub to replace the fanfiction category.  Can I do this?  I realise I may have to go in and edit all the submissions but there are only 14 submissions all in Harry Potter.

You can move the categories around in Admin > Categories. They'll retain their same IDs so you shouldn't have to edit any of the fics. I've done it several times.

Thanks, Lyndsie.  If I delete the fanfiction category will it mess me up?

Do it after you've moved everything out of it.
