Product listing on categories other than main category

[diverest]

Hi,

I recently realized that the products in the shop are only listed in the categories where they are marked as main category. For any other categories the products are not listed.

This is a bit odd and looking like a feature but I cant find any setting for this behaviour in the backoffice.

Any hint?

 

(I am on 1.7.3)

If you mean in the back office, I am afraid that's how it works. you can still show them by other categories if you use the category filter on the top left

Hi NemoPS,

I mean in the Frontoffice.

If I check several categories in a product it must be listed, in the front office, in each category that it is marked. I test it in a new test instance and it works like this.

But in my production instance for some reason the products are only listed (in the FO) in the main/base category no matter how many categories they are listed in.

I see, well that's not how it should work indeed.
Have you tried clearing the site's cache from the back office? Are you using the layered navigation block in the production site? THat might as well be the culprit
