For this CodeIgniter tutorial, I will demonstrate how to add category to our post in the blog and how to use Ion_Auth as our authentication library. This is a continuation from the past tutorials which are Part 1 and Part 2. However, I do recommend to you to download and look at the full sourcecode of this tutorial because my explanation here maybe too short/simple.

Click here to tweet & download the sourcecode or look at the live demonstration first.
