Categories / Products - Top

Where is "new category" button in "Categories / Products - Top"? I have only a "new product" button.

Re: Categories / Products - Top

You must have made products before making any categories to put them in. Categories can hold only subcategories or products, not both; in this case, you will have to delete the products so you can make categories. Then you can make products in those cats.

I already have products. I want to "split" or move them into two categories. Is it not possible?

Since you have products in Top without any categories, you have to delete the products to be able to make categories. How many products do you have? You can copy their information to somewhere on your computer temporarily to make it easier to recreate them.

Six CD releases only... but I am afraid that I cannot recreate them as I finally have, Also, will I lost actual info regarding "product" such as quantity, etc?

Please have a look and help. Thanks a lot!

You may want to look at Easy Populate (free version in Free Addons) to help you export the product info and re-import it after making categories.
