What are Categories and how can I create them?
The categories you set up can be used to categorise your offerings on your shop front.
To create categories, head to Settings > Categories > Add new category > fill in the Name > Create. (See Image 1)
If you select the three dots next to the category you can:
Enable / disable for site - choose whether you want this category to be an option for this site
Delete
You can also use the 'Reorder categories' option to change the order your categories are displayed. A pop up will appear where you can reorder:
Drag and drop the category into the exact place you want.
Select the three dots choose to 'Move to top' or 'Move to bottom'. This will immediately place the category at the top/ bottom of the list.
Select the three dots > Move to position. This will allow you to enter in a number position you want to move it to.
Once done select 'Save' and this will then update the order of the categories on your shop front.
Now that you have created your categories you can add them to your appointment types/ packages/ session types/ area booking types.
To do this go to Settings > Appointment types/ Packages/ Session types/ Area booking types > edit > Categories > select from the drop down menu what categories this offering applies to. (See Image 2)
When on the shop front, the customer can press the 'Any type' option and all the categories you have created will appear. By pressing a category it will filter all your items to only show those that are assigned to that category.
See the video to see how the categories filter works on your shop.
