How to Archive Categories

Categories that are no longer relevant or are outdated, are archived, rather than being deleted.

When archiving a category, all rules within it will remain visible unless archived themselves. This allows any existing links to these categories or rules to continue to work.

To archive a category

1. Go to the category index public page (E.g. https://ssw.com.au/rules/rules-to-better-communication)
2. Click on 'edit in GitHub'
3. Click on the little pencil to edit the Markdown file
4. Within the frontmatter (---), add "archivedreason: {{REASON FOR ARCHIVE}}"
5. Create a PR

Seeing live rules for an archived category

When we archive a category, it no longer shows on the homepage. To see all live rules within an archived category:

1. Navigate to https://www.ssw.com.au/rules/archived/
2. Find the desired archived category
3. Click on the title
4. You will then be redirected to the categories home page where all live rules under that category are displayed
