Categories and hierarchy
How to use categories to organise the products in the web shop, build a hierarchy and control how products are shown to customers.
INNHOLDSFORTEGNELSE
Function and setup
Categories control the sorting of products in the web shop; products within a category are shown together in the preview and from menu choices.
At the top is the parent category for web shop products, often called 'Nettbutikk' or similar. This is called the root category, and is set in 'Settings' under 'Webshop' in Telaris

The root category is then found again from 'Categories' in the web shop settings
Creating and administering categories under the root category can also be done from here.
The categories can then also be assigned in levels to create a hierarchy.

Category image
In a category you can upload an image, which can automatically be shown on the category in the product preview.
The image is uploaded inside the selected category.

Remember to make sure the image on the category/categories fits the web shop format
Category settings
In categories you can make several settings on a category, such as making all products in the category available as backorder items, or only available for in-store pickup.
