Building Catalog Hierarchies

---

Catalog hierarchies determine the structure and navigation paths of catalogs. Hierarchies are built and modified by using the buttons in the Categories list, as shown in Table 2.

Table 2. Catalog Hierarchy Buttons

Button	Function
	Demote one level
	Promote one level
	Move up
	Move down

To create subcategories

Navigate to Catalog Administration.

The Catalogs list appears.

Click the name of a catalog whose hierarchy you want to modify.

The Categories list displays the categories belonging to that catalog.

Use the Move up and Move down buttons to place a category you want to make a subcategory beneath the category you want to make its parent.

For example, place Category 11 below Category 1.

With the child category selected, click the Demote one level button.

The subcategory appears in a tree as a node below its parent. The tree can be expanded and collapsed.

Arrange other categories below the parent category as necessary.

For example, place Category 12 and Category 13 below Category 1.

Select each category in turn and click the Demote one level button.

The subcategories are placed in the tree below the other subcategory. The Sequence field can be used to display the subcategories in the correct order on the Categories page and on the Web site.

Use the buttons as necessary to extend the catalog hierarchy.

For example, Category 12 can be made a subcategory of Category 11.

Subcategories are displayed under categories on the Web site in ascending order by sequence and then in alphabetical order by display name.
