How do you move categories?

I have a TV category and a home audio category. I wish I would have thought ahead, but I would like these both to be under a home theatre category. How can I move a product category under another category?

Also I have a Camera category, but now want to add diff types of cameras and each needs its own category under cameras. How can I add a category once products are already in a category?

Thank you.

Re: How do you move categories?

There should be a move icon to the far left of the category listing (purple circle with an M in it).

As you know, you can't create sub-categories if you already have products in that category. Create a category for those products and move all the products into it (again, there'll be a purple circle with an M in it among the icons at the far right). Once the products are moved, move the category into the original category.

I'm sure that's clear as mud. :blink:

You already have Home Audio and Televisions on the same level. Say you have stereos as products under Home Audio. Create a Stereos product on the same level with Home Audio and Televisions. Move all the stereos from Home Audio to Stereos. Then move Stereos and Televisions to Home Audio.
