How can I change the "Category" titles in the new version

I had some customizations made on my old site, which included a nav bar with tabs at the top, named appropriately.

I do not wish to us the "smugmug" pre-assigned categories that are defaulting on the new version for the gallery names.

I am unable to locate information on how to change the "category" titles to reflect the gallery names I would like to use.

Please advise. Thanks for your help. :)

Example... Client Images (my category name) is showing up as "Groups"
Nature (my category name) is now showing up as "Landscapes"
My Snapshots (my category name) is now showing up as "Family" etc....

I would prefer to keep the names I have assigned, and not the "smugmug" premade category names. Thank you.

    The name for certain ones of your folders (they were called categories on legacy SmugMug) are actually what you are using. For example "Nature" was what you used in the Navigation bar when you created it but the name for that category/folder is actually titled "Landscapes" Here is a screen shot of what I mean.

    Here are steps to create the navigation bar on the New SmugMug.

    To add folders to your navigation bar on your homepage follow these steps.

    customize > customize site > entire site > click on your navigation bar > hit the wrench icon > links > "+" button > name the link > link to > page I choose > pick one > choose page > select the folder > done > done > done > publish now

    Just to word to say you guys out did yourself. The new smugmug is great. I also wanted to add and change the names of some of my galleries. I managed to figure it out myself by just looking around the site and playing. Something that would have taken me days to do was completed in 20 mins. Great work

    Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately your link does not work.

    Can anyone at smugmug tell me how to just change those titles in the "Category". I understand that I created the tabs and names...

    I don't want to make a new nav bar, I like the new layouts just fine for now. I just don't like the category names that are showing on the revised pages, and would like to know how I can get into the codes to change the names from the presets that smugmug has created for categories.

    Thanks for any help that can be given.

    The link never worked for me either however the instruction on how to change are good.

    I did notice there is a delete button on the menu beside the keys.
