is it possible to map categories under a single one?
meaning to have a main category which is going to be -more or less- a url under which categories are going to be listed?
eg. clicking on "underwear" to list you the categories men underwear and female underwear
sort of something similar as to the alphabetical listing of categories now in place but instead of the letter to have the -so called by me- "main category name"
i know that its not possible to have categories and subcategories but thats why i am thinking of the above...
Ps bear in mind that i am not very good with php -i am sort of "copy pasting" ;-) -
thx
Hi,
As the script doesn't support a category hierarchy as such (a conscious decision as there just isn't the quality of data required to support it in most affiliate product feeds), the method I recommend is to create a virtual category hierarchy by installing the script multiple times into sub-directories, where the directory name implies the top level category - so would appear as part of the URL as you mentioned. Then, into each installation, you would upload merchants feeds who's products are broadly in that category. Alternatively, for merchants that sell a wide range of products (e.g. a department store), you could have their feed in each installation; but use the selective import filters (Drop Record If Not etc.) to limit the products imported to the specific category. Lots more info and instructions in this thread:
