Create a main category or a sub-category, with its pictures, tax, add-ons, return rule and search wording.
A category needs only a name. Everything else on the form is optional.
On Catalogue › Categories, select Add category. To edit, select Edit on a category card.
Enter the name in the Details card. With more than one language enabled there is a field per language.
