Explanation of the Categories Feature​

1. What is the Categories Feature?​

  • Purpose: This feature allows you to manage and organize product categories within your store. You can categorize products into specific categories such as "Sportswear" or "Electronics" to make browsing and searching easier for customers.
  • Usage: You can add, edit, or delete categories to suit your store's needs. You can also define the order of category display using priority.

2. Editing a Category​

  • Main Category Image: You can add a featured image for the category, which will appear next to the category name in the store.
  • Category Name: This is the name that will be displayed to customers when the category is shown in the store. The category name should be clear and direct.
  • Link: This is the URL that defines the category's address. This link is crucial for SEO and should contain appropriate keywords.
  • Show in Header?: You can choose whether you want the category to appear in the category list in the header (the top bar of the store).
  • Display Priority: Here, you can define the display priorities of categories. For example, if the "Sportswear" category has higher priority than another, it will appear first.
  • Hidden: You can hide a category if you do not want it to appear directly to customers, such as for special offers or limited products.
  • Choose a Parent Category for This Category: If you want to organize categories in a tree structure, you can make this category a subcategory of a main category.
  • Static Content Above the Products in the Category: If you want to display certain content like text or images above the products in the category, you can enable this feature.
  • Enable HTML Editor: Enabling the HTML editor allows you to add custom formatting using HTML code to display unique content within the category.

3. Displaying Categories​

  • On the Categories screen, you can see all the created categories with options to edit them or view their contents.
  • You can also decide if the categories should appear in the header and change their order based on priority.

Notes​

  • Organizing Categories Well: Proper organization helps make the shopping experience smoother for customers and contributes to increasing sales.
  • Customizing Categories with HTML: If you want to display special content or unique designs, you can use the HTML editor to add customizations within the categories.
