How Parent Categories Work

Parent Categories allow you to group related categories under one main category, helping your end users drill down into more specific options within a broader category.

Example:
You may have a main category called Tents. Under that, you might want to group the following subcategories:

• High Peak Tents

• Pop-Up Tents

• A-Frame Tents

To do this:

1. First, create all your categories, including both the main and subcategories.

2. Then, edit each subcategory (e.g., High Peak Tents, Pop-Up Tents, A-Frame Tents).

3. Scroll to the Parent Category setting at the bottom of each subcategory and select Tents as the parent.

⚠️ Important:
Do not assign a category as its own parent. This will create a loop that causes the category to disappear from your site.
