Categories and subcategories allow your customers to access your products in a logical, efficient way.
With PrestaShop, you can create an unlimited number of categories and subcategories. Moreover, a product can belong to an unlimited number of categories and subcategories. For example, a blue T-shirt could belong to the category “T-shirts” as well as the subcategory “Blue clothing”.
Creating a category or subcategory is the same process.
- Go to Back Office >> Catalog.
- Click Add a new subcategory. (Note: By default, all categories added to your store are “subcategories” of the main category, Home. That is why the function is called “Add a new subcategory.”) The Category form appears.
- Complete the form. Take care to properly fill out the 3 Meta fields and the Friendly URLfield with the best keywords that will improve your online store’s search-engine results for this (sub)category.
- Click Save.
You can also change the order in which your categories are displayed.
- Assign a product to a category
