Hello David,
I wondered if it is possible to define a (hidden) category that is invisible in the website. In this (hidden) category the user can place (map) product categories that are invisible in the website.
Why?: Some imports have product categories that you don't want in the website.
Example: A department store can have clothing, toys, garden and food categories. But I only want the clothing to be visible in the website. So with category Mapping I would like to map all toys, garden and food categories into a (hidden) invisible category.
I have no idea whether something like that is complicated or simple to make.
Greetings Arlo
Thanks for your quick reply. I'm going to delve into it :-)

Hi Arlo,
You can always use Drop Record or Drop Record RegExp filters to drop products in certain categories. To drop a single category, just add a Drop Record filter to the Category field for a feed, and in the text box on the configuration page enter the category name you wish to exclude.
To exclude multiple categories, use Drop Record RegExp and on the configuration page as the regexp use:
(Category 1|Category 2|Category 3)...i.e. a pipe separated list of values to match, all enclosed in brackets which is the regular expression to use.
Hope this helps!
Cheers,
David.
