How do I delete categories in my online store?
To delete a category, select the E-Commerce tile.
Select Catalog > Categories
If you wish to remove a category from your store, you can disable it or delete it permanently. When you disable a category, it stops showing in your store. At the same time, you can see it in your Control Panel and enable it back if needed.
To disable a category, select the category you want to disable. Select “Disable”. The enabled products from a disabled category will not show in the storefront navigation, but will still be available by a direct link and in the search results.
If you wish to remove a category completely, you can delete it. Select the category you want to remove in the category tree on the left. Select “Delete Category”.
The products that were assigned to the deleted category will not be deleted. They will be moved to the Store Front page category.
