PHP Class Piwik\Category\Subcategory

All widgets within a subcategory will be rendered in the Piwik reporting UI under the same page. By default you do not have to specify any subcategory as they are created automatically. Only create a subcategory if you want to change the name for a specific subcategoryId or if you want to specifiy a different order so the subcategory appears eg at a different order in the reporting menu. It also affects the order of reports in API.getReportMetadata and wherever we display any reports. To define a subcategory just place a subclass within the Categories folder of your plugin. Subcategories can also be added through the {@hook Subcategory.addSubcategories} event.
