Create categories

Organizing your products into categories helps customers easily navigate your Pop-Up store and find what they’re looking for.

Step 1: Navigate to the Categories Section

• Log in to your Wandace account.

• Go to Product Catalog in the main menu.

• Click on Categories.

Step 2: Add a New Category

• Click on the Create Category button.

• Fill in the category details:

  • Name: Enter the category name.

  • Description: Provide a brief description of the category.

  • Image: Upload an image for the category.

  ⚠️ Adding an image is highly recommended. The category image will be displayed in your Pop-Up store, making your storefront more visually appealing and easier to navigate.

Step 3: Organize Categories in a Tree Format

To create a tree structure, you can assign parent categories to your new category. This allows you to create subcategories and organize your products more efficiently.

Parent Category: (Optional) Select a parent category if creating a subcategory. If you do not select a parent category, the new category will be a top-level category.

• Example of a tree structure:

  • Top-Level Category: Men's Clothing

    • Subcategory:

      • Subcategory: Shirts

      • Subcategory: Pants

      • Subcategory: Jerseys

Step 4: Control Category Visibility in Your Pop-Up Store

You can choose whether a category is visible in your Pop-Up store.

This is especially useful for:

• Seasonal categories (e.g., Valentine’s Day, Christmas)

• Limited-time collections

• Temporary campaigns

If a category is hidden, it will not appear in your Pop-Up store navigation, but it will remain available inside your admin panel.

This gives you flexibility to activate or deactivate categories depending on the season or promotion.

Step 5: Save the Category

1. Review the details.

2. Click Save to create the category.

Step 6: Managing Existing Categories

From the Categories section, you can:

• View existing categories

• Edit a category by clicking on its name and updating the details

• Delete a category by clicking on the trash icon

⚠️ Be cautious when deleting a category. Deleting a category will also remove all its subcategories and may affect associated products.
