show all category products in the root category?
 
Hi,

I thought this was a setting but can't find it at all.

So when you click on the root category I would like it to display all the products in the root and the sub category, not sure if this can be done?

Thanks Guys!

Spencer

BTW this is for the 4.2.2 cart...

You need to add them all to the root category in addition to the subcategory on the product modify screen.

Thanks balinor,

was hoping there would be an easier way!

Maybe I can get xcart to do it.

here is the solution given to me by xcart, very helpful and took no time:

You can use the 'group modify' feature to resolve this issue.

For this you should specify the category, the products of which you want to be displayed in the root category, in the "Search in category" field, tick the "Search-and-modify" check-box and after that click on the "Search"- button.

After that you will be redirected to the section of all products modification, where you can define the additional categories for the group of products.

Is there a way to keep the sub-directories but have a "show all" link that will show everything under the main category?

I don't want to fill my main category page with items but leave the sub-cats in place given the customer the option to look at everything under the main category.

Is this mean need to do one by one?

Thanks
