To create a section:
 

1. In the workspace, go to Manage > Sections
2. Click on create to add new sections
3. Specify the following in the Create Section dialog. 
   Name -The name of the section. 
   Display name - The name that appears on the website. 
   Slug - This field gets auto-generated
   Select Parent Section - The parent section name, if a nested section is required. It is preferred that a Parent Section is added after creating a section first. This is so that the collection created (and the slug of the collection) does not include the Parent Section name.
4. Click Save.
