Adding Store Categories
When adding products to your store, you may come across the need to organize your products into "folders" called "categories." Doing so helps to make it easier for website visitors to find what they're looking for and helps them become familiar customers.
In this article, we will cover the steps for activating and adding products to Categories. For the steps on adding products, check out: Managing Products.
Creating Categories:
With Gator, you can quickly activate Product Categories to organize the navigation of your store by following these steps:
2. Look for, and toggle the switch for "Product Categories."
This toggle will enable the functionality of categories within the products screen.
Once you have activated the Product Categories, Navigate to your Products from the left-hand menu to continue:
- You should now see the "Add A Category" section to the right-hand side of your screen.
