List Categories
Categories are managed from Catalog → Categories
Categories are essential for organizing your products and providing a clear navigation structure for your customers. They act as containers for your products, allowing customers to browse and find what they're looking for easily.
Hierarchical Structure: You can create parent categories and subcategories (nested categories) to create a logical hierarchy for your products. For example, you might have a parent category "Clothing" with subcategories like "Shirts," "Pants," and "Shoes."
Product Assignment: Creating a category doesn't automatically add products to it. You must assign products to categories separately when you create or edit products.
This category grid allows you to perform the following actions:
change categories sort order with mouse drag-n-drop or manually entering sort order directly in the grid
change the store to view categories within another store in case you have multi-store enabled
disable or remove categories directly in the grid
quick view & edit categories
refine loaded categories hierarchy list. Note: Use the category dropdown in the top menu to load All categories or specific category level
get the embed code of the loaded categories list
When you remove a category in AbanteCart, it's vital to understand that this action only removes the category itself. It does not remove the products that were assigned to that category.
Quick View
In the Quick View modal, you can edit most of the category data without leaving the category grid.

With Embed, you can sell anything on almost any website or HTML page. To get the category embed code click on the share icon.
