Categories

Taxonomy for catalog filters and the homepage rail.

Categories let you group products. They power:

  • Storefront filters on the catalog page.
  • Category-specific landing pages.
  • The homepage featured rail.
  • The fallback algorithm for "Customers also bought" when there's no purchase history yet.

Multi-category

A product can belong to more than one category — list Linen Shirt under both Summer and Men's. The first category in the list is the primary and is the one used for cards that display a single category badge.

Editing

Add, rename, reorder, or delete categories from /admin/categories. Deleting a category does not delete its products; they just lose that category tag.

AI assistance

On a category's edit page you can:

  • Generate a category image — create tile imagery from the category name and description, then Set as category image to use it.
  • Suggest a description — draft the EN or NL description from your shop's context. Review before saving.

See AI images & descriptions for the full workflow and cost notes.
