Creating categories alias

[Deepinder]

How can we create a category alias name

[musicmaster]

You can't. At least not in Prestashop software. Your only option is to make a redirect in the .htaccess file.

if not presta shop any other tool that can do the same

One of the tricks I used to have some similar effect is putting this kind of code in config.inc.php:

$tmps = explode("-", $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
if((sizeof($tmps) == 2) && ($tmps[0] == "/220"))
  header('Location: http://www.myshop.com/21-bicycles');

It redirects the category with id 220 to category 21. That way you can access a category from two trees.

Quite likely you will find other solutions in the addons.

Hi,

Thanks for code.

I was looking for code to import Products and Merge the categories .

For example Computers and computer both as alias to Desktops.

Reason i am doing so... i am managing 3 different data feeds and all have different categories.
