Trying to make new sub category, currently unable.

Hello all,

I'm trying to set up a simple subcategory to make my products easier to navigate for my customers. I'd like the tree to look a bit like this:

Plotters & Accessories > Plotters & Scanners > Manufacturer > Product.

Right now all my plotters/scanners in the same sub category, but I'd like to further refine this by allowing the customer to choose between manufacturers. However, when I open the Plotters & Scanners category there's no "new category" button.

What's the deal? :no:

You can't have products and categories in the same category. You will need to move your products to another category temporarily (you can make a new "dummy" category for this), make your new subcategories, then move the products back to their proper subcats.

Brilliant, thank you.
