Categories
Products on the Saleor platform can be sorted by category if you sell a range of items.
Adding a Category
Click to enter a new set of products. Enter the category name, description, and SEO-optimized information the same way as you would with an individual product. When finished, click in the bottom right corner and then add a widescreen banner photo that will appear at the top of the screen when customers view the category.
Editing Categories
Once you have your categories, you can edit them at any time by clicking on a category from the list and changing information. When viewing a category, you have a card at the bottom of the page with tabs for viewing and editing products and sub-catgeories.
Sub-categories
Sub-categories break large groups down into smaller subsets that make it easier to manage stores and help customers find the right products.
How to Add a Sub-Category
Click in the top right corner of the sub-categories card. In this example, we have paints and cushions in the Accessories category, which can be marked as separate sub-categories. Add a description and SEO information just the same as with a main category.
Deleting Categories
To remove a category, simply click in the footer.
WARNING
Be cautious when deleting categories
Products are mandatorily assigned to categories. Deleting a category will also remove all products it contains. Only remove a category if you are sure that you also want to permanently delete all its products from your catalog.
