Cloning, Moving or Linking a Category

Cloning creates a duplicate with a unique ID that you can place in any location/hierarchy of your choice. 

Move/Link to Folder allows you either to move a category/product to a new location/hierarchy or to link one category/product to another category/product. You can for example create a category called "Featured Products" and link it to items across various other categories

This way, if you make changes to content on the original product page and that same product is part of the "Featured Products" category as a linked product, the changes will be displayed in both locations. In other words, changes are bi-directional. Links can be broken if either of the two are deleted.

  1. To link to a category, go to the Node List and select the category you want to link back to.
  2. Click More Actions and then click on the Move/Link to folder option.
  3. Select link to folder and select the link destination from the drop-down menu. Click OK to create the link to that category under that directory.
