Creating/Updating Categories

Modified on Mon, Jun 18, 2018 at 12:52 PM

The Catalogue page can be found by going to Manage Products then Catalogue Structure.


To create a category, click on the root category in which you want to create a sub category under, and click on the Add icon to the top right. Once you click the Add icon enter the name of the new category or sub category. (Please note that not all bootstrap themes support sub categories.)




To update the specific category click on the category and then click on the Edit icon on the top right.


Once you edit a category you may upload an image for that category.

To have that image appear you need to set the main company settings to use that image.

To show it in the middle of the page use Show Catalogue Folders to show it in the tree use Catalogue Tree. (In bootstrap you must ALSO use the {Folders} shortcode to display them on the Mian Layout or Catalogue Page.)


Use the Description area to add verbiage, copy or information that the user will see when then click into that category. You can either user the Design Editor or work in HTML mode in order to maintain your bootstrap theme style.


GROUPS

To limit access of categories to individuals of a certain Group you much click on the category.  Then down below select the groups you want to be able to VIEW that category and move them to the left. If not groups are selected then everyone may view that category. Only users within a group can SEE the category in the front end.
