Overview

You can add as many Categories and Subcategories as you like in the Site Manager. Subcategories, as the name implies, will show up underneath their "Parent" category on the website.

You'll use categories to organize your site content. Here is an sample of how categories might be arranged for a clothing store:

-Product Catalog
---Clothing
-----Shirts
--------Long Sleeve
--------Short Sleeve
-----Pants
--------Long
--------Short
--------Caprii
---Shop By Brand
-----Gap
-----Eddie Bauer
-----Old Navy
---On Sale Now

Using MightyMerchant you can place each of your products in one or more categories. You can re-arrange your categories at any time. For example, in 3 steps, you could remove the 'Clothing' category and flatten your category structure so your categories would look like this instead:

-Product Catalog
---Shirts
------Long Sleeve
------Short Sleeve
---Pants
------Long
------Short
------Capri
---Shop By Brand
-----Gap
-----Eddie Bauer
-----Old Navy
---On Sale Now

MightyMerchant makes it easy to place your items in more than one category, when editing an item, you simply click a box next to the category you want the item listed in.

The rest of this section explains how to use your site manager to manage the categories on your web site.
