The Add Category link in the Store menu allows you to add a category to your store.

How to add a category to a store

1. After selecting a store, go to Store > Add Category; the New Category dialog box will appear.
2. In the New Category dialog box, enter the name of the new category.
3. Select the type of category from the dropdown menu. There are two options:
   • Normal category is shown in the categories menu.
   • Hidden category does not appear in the categories menu, but can be referred to in "[DFR]" tags or used for dripping.
4. From the next dropdown menu, select the parent category for this new category, or select "Top Level" if the new category has no parent (i.e. is not a sub-category).
5. When you are done, click [Create]; you will be redirected to the Category Home page and prompted to add products to this new category.
