===== Add Indexers =====

Click on the **Add Indexer** button at the top.

<WRAP info>
**NOTE:** Some indexers do not have a **green plus sign** as they are private indexers.

These require a subscription to the server in order to use these.

To find out where to go to register for a subscription; or if you already have a username and password you can click on the **blue setup icon**.

===== Determine Indexer Capabilities =====

Now for each indexer, in this example **AniRena**, click on the **blue configuration button**.

Take a look at the **Capabilities** section.

This shows what media this Indexer provides.  

For the specific media you are interested in, take a note of the **Category number**, for example 5070 for TV series.
