Moving Categories Down to Sub


RareIntent

Recommended Posts

Posted

I want to move my categories on front page down to a sub-category of a new set of categories....how would I do this and still retain all the links, etc...or do I have to do it one by one and re-link categories and products?

 

The example is most of what's on site now is newage related...as we are revamping to include bed-bath, bath-body, home-garden, mind-body, spirit-religiuos....we want to move the present categories into the lader new one, hopefully with the click of a button......lol

 

Anyone done this?....and how/where?

 

Thanks,

Have your read through the knowledge base yet? If not you should do so. There is an explanation of how to add and move categories.

The Knowledge Base is a wonderful thing.

Do you have a problem? Have you checked out Common Problems?

There are many very useful osC Contributions

Are you having trouble with a installed contribution? Have you checked out the support thread found Here

BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP!!! You did backup, right??

you want to make "new" category and take the old ones and put them into it?

 

new category

>old stuff

>old stuff

 

new new category

>old stuff

 

 

If this is what you want then all you need to do is go to the category section in admin, create your new category first, then select one of the old ones and and click move, then select the new category and it'll move it into there

 

i had over 50 categories which i've condensed down to about 10 using new categories

 

hope this helps?
