Product categories organize related products and can appear as category links or cards on your website. Create the category in Content, then assign it to the site where it should be used.
Create the category
-
Open Product Category
Go to Content and choose Product Category. Select Add or New Item.
-
Name and describe it
Enter a category name. You can also add a description and image. If this category belongs beneath another category, choose a parent category.
-
Save the category
Save it with the appropriate status. It can remain a draft while you prepare its image or finish the product catalogue.
-
Assign it to a website
Open the saved category for editing and select the website or websites where it belongs. Categories are shown on a website only when they are published and explicitly assigned to that site.
Put products in the category
Open a product for editing and choose this category in its Category field. For a product to appear in the website shop, the product also needs to be published, sellable and assigned to that website.
Category assignment and product assignment are separate. Assign the category and each product to the website where they should appear.
