Create a Category
To create a category, fill out this form:
Creating a category
First of all, give your category a name, then determine if it is “displayed,” or in other words, if it will
be accessible to your customers or not. For example, you may want to postpone showing a new
category to your customers because you have not quite completed it. If you are creating a
subcategory belonging to a category other than the welcome page, choose the category under which
it will appear in the drop-down menu “Parent Category.” Click on “Browse” to upload an image from
your computer, in order to illustrate your category.
Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Fields
This information will help you optimize the visibility of your catalog on search engines.
 “Meta title” is the title that will appear on the search engines when a request is made by a
customer
 “Meta description” is a presentation of your site in just a few lines, intended to capture a
customer’s interest. It will appear in search results.
