Learn how to create product subcategories using Hostinger Website Builder

Updated over a year ago

If you use Hostinger Website Builder to run an online store and want to create product subcategories, you need to complete three main steps:

  1. Create product subcategories in the store management area

  2. Display the subcategories on the website

  3. Structuralize categories and subcategories

Step 1 – Create Product Subcategories in the Store Management Area

In the store management areaCategories, create subcategories and assign the products there. You can create subcategories just as you'd create categories. One product can be assigned to multiple categories/subcategories.

For example, the product Golden ring can belong to:

  1. The category/subcategory Accessories

  2. The category/subcategory Rings

  3. The category/subcategory Golden rings

  4. The category/subcategory Golden accessories, etc.
