automatically generate header menu based on existing categories ?

Hi,

I just imported/migrated a site with 10k product alone with 1k categories

manually one by one adding such categories menu to the header is obviously unrealistic

is there anyway to automatically form a menu on header based on existing categories ?

best regards,

Hello,

Please navigate to Appearance -> Menus and try to add all categories by clicking on the “Select all” button and adding them to the menu.

Let me know your results.

Hi,

thanks for the idea, but sadly it doesn’t work

it does not retain the parentness of categories , all cat will be listed as same level , then again , I will have to drag & drop to adjust thousand of categories , that’s something I try to avoid …

best regards,

Hello,

In this case, better to show your categories in the Shop’s sidebar, please navigate to Appearance -> Widgets -> define the “Product Categories” element in the “Sho page Widget area” widget.

As a result, your categories will have the hierarchy

Hi,

thanks for the tip , new technique learnt

is it possible , somehow , by other plugin or code snippet , to make this widget display in header area ?

Hello,

Sorry, but there’s currently no way to do that in the header, it requires Customization and this is beyond our limitations and support policy scope. Hope you can understand our limitations. We appreciate you taking the time to let us know what you’re looking for.

Kind Regards
