Create a category

How to create a category

  1. In the PhyGrid Console, go to Content → Products and open the Category tab
  2. Click New category
  3. Under Environment, choose the environment of the products that go in the category. You can’t change it after saving
  4. Under Languages, add each language from Select language to add
  5. For a subcategory, select This is a subcategory and choose the Parent Category
  6. Enter an Identifier, for example shoes. It must be 3-50 characters: letters, digits, hyphens and underscores only. The field starts with a random value; replace it with one that’s easy to read, because you type it into solution settings
  7. Enter the Title in each language
  8. Click Save category

Where the identifier is used

Solution settings refer to a category by its Identifier, not its title. For example, each category tile on the Endless Aisle home screen points to a category identifier, and shows the products of its subcategories too. See Make products show on the kiosk.
