Useful Information for Classifieds Categories Management (Admin)
Each category can have multiple subcategories; however subcategories cannot have sub-categories. In other words you can have a parent category with children but the children cannot then have children.
When deleteing multiple categories, checking “Delete Ads if any” only applies to ads within the specific category being deleted. In other words, if the category has children categories and the children categories have ads those ads will not be deleted.
When a parent category is deleted children categories are automatically moved to the category with ID 1 if you do not specify a new parent category. If no category with ID 1 exists such a category will be created and the category will be named “Untitled”.
The category with ID 1 is treated like your default category so you might want that category to have a more general title.
In the case where children categories are deleted, any ads contained are moved to the parent unless you check “Delete Ads if any”.
When you delete children categories, if the children categories have ads the ads are moved to the parent category unless you specify a category.
The best way to use the multiple category deletion tool and the mass-move category tool is to move or delete related categories because you can only specify one move-to category.
