  <p>Following your comment, and if I understand well, you already are using a URL for the categories, but want to create kind of a subpage "information" for them. It is a bit more complicated but it can be achieved. What you can do is create a route, either from the control panel or the <code>config/routes.php</code> file in <code>craft/config</code>. It may be easier to do it from the control panel first. If you go to Settings > Routes and click on "New route" you can enter the following information:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://i.sstatic.net/f57Po.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/f57Po.png" alt="New route popup"></a></p>
  
  <p>It will create a new URI endpoint for the "information" pages that you want and map them to a <code>_information.html</code> template in the "categories" folder.</p>
  
  <p>You can then create <code>_information.html</code> template and retrieve your category using the following code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>{% set category = craft.categories({ group: 'categoryName', slug: craft.request.segments[1] }) %}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Assuming the handle of your category is <code>categoryName</code> of course.
  <code>craft.request.segments</code> is an array containing all parts of your URI, starting from 0. Thus, the second part of the URI, which is the selected category's slug, is stored in <code>craft.request.segments[1]</code>.
  The variable <code>category</code> will then contain all the fields assigned to the category that you want to display in the information page.</p>

Answers.Text: What I meant by the external link was to have an additional slug onto of my category item, so it would add an additional page. So 'information' being that additional page which I could add fields to. Can this still be done with categories?

Comments.Text: What do you mean by "external link"? If you have a category group (and not just made a section and put your categories as entries) you can enable "Categories in this group have their own URLs" in your category group settings. https://craftcms.com/docs/categories

  **Update**
  
  Following your comment, and if I understand well, you already are using a URL for the categories, but want to create kind of a subpage "information" for them. It is a bit more complicated but it can be achieved. What you can do is create a route, either from the control panel or the `config/routes.php` file in `craft/config`. It may be easier to do it from the control panel first. If you go to Settings > Routes and click on "New route" you can enter the following information:
  
  [![New route popup](https://i.sstatic.net/f57Po.png)](https://i.sstatic.net/f57Po.png)
  
  It will create a new URI endpoint for the "information" pages that you want and map them to a `_information.html` template in the "categories" folder.
  
  You can then create `_information.html` template and retrieve your category using the following code:
  
  ```
  {% set category = craft.categories({ group: 'categoryName', slug: craft.request.segments[1] }) %}
  
  ```
  
  Assuming the handle of your category is `categoryName` of course.
  `craft.request.segments` is an array containing all parts of your URI, starting from 0. Thus, the second part of the URI, which is the selected category's slug, is stored in `craft.request.segments[1]`.
  The variable `category` will then contain all the fields assigned to the category that you want to display in the information page.
