casserced Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 HiAt the moment the structure I find is:HOME/SUBCATEGORIES/PRODUCTSHOME seems to be the only (parent) categoryIf I try to create a new category it actually is a sub-category.Could anyone assist? I have looked round the forum for previous answer but do not seem to find anythingThanks in advanceCass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocky Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 Yes, that is normal. Home is the only top-level category. All categories must be a subcategory of it. Why would you want to have a category on the same level as Home? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocky Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 I can't see any problem with doing this. Just create a subcategory with name "Woolen" with parent "Home", another with name "Men" and parent "Woolen", another with name "Ladies" and parent "Woolen", another with name "V neck" and parent "Men" and another with name "Turtle neck" and parent "Men". You can have as many levels as you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razaro Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 EDIT: didn't see rocky's post, this is same.Woolen----Men--------V neck--------Turtle neck----Ladies--------V neck--------Turtle neckIs this what you want.First create category "Woolen" with Parent category "Home".Than you need to create categories "Man" and "Ladies" with Parent category "Woolen".Then create categories "V neck" and "Turtle neck" with Parent category "Man".And create categories "V neck" and "Turtle neck" with Parent category "Ladies".

casserced Posted February 27, 2010 Author Share Posted February 27, 2010 HiMany thanks. I did not realise I could "parent" subcategories.... of course it makes sense!Having spent 75 years of my life without the internet I decided it was time to take the jump 3 years ago.... I love it but it can be hard to get to grip with.Just started this idea of website charity swap... but I might have taken on more than I can chew... so thanks for your help!When it is all up and ready I'll put up the link for commentsCass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prestapepe Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 With this solution you are duplicating a category, two diffrerent "V neck" links same content and the same for "Turtle neck"... Needless to say that Google doesnt like this.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
