Check your products_to_categories table ...

This should only contain products_id and categories_id that actually exist ...

If it contains more, then as you add products if they happen to match up, they will be linked ...

Re: Zen Link Every Added New Product To Another Category

hi Ajeh
this is what actually I see in products_to_categories table in browser of the table:
products_id categories_id
1 466
15 466
16 450
17 466
18 453
19 453
and in structure of the table;

Field Type Collation Attributes Null Default Extra Action
products_id int(11) No 0
categories_id int(11) No 0

Indexes: Keyname Type Cardinality Action Field
PRIMARY PRIMARY 25 products_id
categories_id
idx_cat_prod_id_zen INDEX 25 categories_id
products_id

at this time, when I add a product, immediately I have to look at it again to see with which category has been linked because it's randomely, and then I do delete this product but in delete page, I deselect the origine category(red color) and let the unwanted linked category to be deleted.
very time loosing , and I don't know what I have to do.

What categories_id are in the categories table?

What products_id are in the products table?

Something sounds off on the database tables if you are having this happen ...
