Catalogue

Nested product categories for large online catalogues

Categories nest to any depth, each with its own position, a visibility window so a category only shows at certain times of day, and full import and export including the tree structure — so a 20,000-item catalogue keeps its structure instead of turning into one long list.

How it works

How it works

  1. 1

    Build the tree

    Nest categories to any depth — department, aisle, sub-aisle — the way the shop actually organises stock.

  2. 2

    Set visibility windows

    Show a category only at certain times of day, such as a breakfast menu that disappears after 11am.

  3. 3

    Position each category

    Set a manual position so the categories that sell most sit first in navigation.

  4. 4

    Import or export the tree

    Bring in or move out the full category structure, not just a flat list of names.

  5. 5

    Clean up empty categories

    Find and remove categories with no products left in them in one pass.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can a category be hidden except during certain hours?
Yes, a time-of-day visibility window shows a category only during the hours you set, useful for a breakfast or lunch menu that should not appear all day.
Does importing categories keep the parent-child structure?
Yes, category import and export carries the full tree structure, so a large catalogue migration does not flatten departments into one list.
What happens to a category once every product inside it is removed?
It stays until you run the empty-category cleanup, which finds and removes categories with no products left so navigation does not fill up with dead links.
