Categories, Features, and Cross-Selling

Categories

To add a product to a category, simply select the desired category from the dropdown menu and click Add. If you don't want a product to appear in a category that you have previously added it to, click the Delete link next to the category that you want to remove the product from.


VPCART 8.00 comes with an enhanced category for editing products. If you choose a category and click “Add Category”, the product will automatically be assigned to the category without refreshing the product page.

When you delete one of the categories, it will also automatically update the deleted category to the product without refreshing the page.

Note: Displayfor this item is different if you are adding or updating a product.

 

If you have a lot of categories in your site, and when you are at the edit products page, the list of dropdown menus in the “Categories” field will be hard to select.

 

To handle this issue, we have a new config called “xAjaxSearchCategory”.

xAjaxSearchCategory

Set this to Yes to enable Ajax Search Categories mode at the Edit Category page and Edit Product page.


 

When you are typing in the “Search Categories” textbox, the list of categories will be displayed based on the keywords.  Simply click one of the lists and the category id will automatically be populated in the “Categories” field. Then click Add Category to submit it.
