How to add custom categories to HostShop?
By default your HostShop will have six product categories. These are:
- Web Hosting
- Managed Cloud Hosting
- Domain Names
- Additional Products & Services
- SSL Certificates
- Virtual Private Servers
As well as these categories, HostShop gives you the full flexibility to create custom categories, to better suit your business' product range.
To add a new category:
- Go to My20i > HostShop
- Visit Product Catalogue
- Click Add New > Category
When adding a category you need to configure the following:
Visible - This determines whether the category shows in your shop. Normally, you would want to ensure this is visable.
Category Name - the name the category will be known by
Description - the description of the category shown in the shop
Products - The products that are to be in the category.
Link Text - this is the text shown on the button users click to go to the category
Sidebar Icon - here you can set a FontAwesome class to be used as an icon for the category. You can find a list of available icons here.
