Categories (Admin)
Admin-side management of storefront categories.
Where to find it
Admin: /commerce/categories
Documentation for the customer-facing side is at Storefront Categories.
What's different from the storefront doc
This page covers the admin-only concerns:
Tenant category visibility
In multi-tenant setups, each tenant can restrict which categories appear in their storefront:
- Table:
commerce__tenant_categories - Unless you set tenant-specific visibility, all categories show everywhere
- Useful for reseller-specific catalogs
Category images
Upload via the admin — stored at /uploads/categories/ with full URL in DB. See Storefront Categories for details.
Display order + hierarchy
Reorder categories by setting their display_order (lower = first). Top-level categories appear in the main navigation; nested categories show under their parent.
Bulk operations
For bulk updates (renaming many, reparenting, etc.), use SQL directly or the admin's bulk edit form.
