Amending categories

-- HikaShop version -- : 2..6.0 business
-- Joomla version -- : 3.4

How do we move, change the name of, or delete categories?

On the attached image it shows 'Substance Resource Shop". When we create a category menu for that category it displays the categories, as it should, but underneath that category it also displays all of the items in that category.

If we create a menu using your Categories, this doesn't happen. So we want to move the 'Substance resource Shop' category inside the top categories folder.

Can you point us to the documentation which enables this.

Thanks

Ian

Hi,

1. On your screenshot, you can see the edit icon for each category of your listing next to the checkboxes.
Click on edit to edit the category. There you can change its name, and move it to somewhere else thanks to the "parent" option.
And you can delete the categories by selecting them with the checkbox and then clicking on the "delete" button at the top.

2. Having the products of the sub categories displaying or not on the main category of the menu item simply depends on how you configure your menu item. When you edit it via the Joomla menus manager, you can change the "sub element filter" of the "products options" tab in order to change that behavior.

Sorry Nicolas,

Still a bit confused over moving and deleting cats.

Hi,

Here is the procedure:
-click on the "categories" link on the left explorer.
-click on the checkbox of the men and women categories on the main listing
- click on the "delete" button at the top
-click on the "root" link on the left explorer
-click on the "edit" icon of the "substance resource shop" category on the main listing
- change the "parent" option to the other category where you want to move it
- save

OK got that, thanks.
