If you use Hostinger Website Builder <\/b>to run an online store and want to create product subcategories, you need to complete three main steps:<\/p>

    \n
  1. \n

    Create product subcategories in the store management area<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  2. \n

    Display the subcategories on the website<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  3. \n

    Structuralize categories and subcategories<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>

    Step 1 – Create Product Subcategories in the Store Management Area<\/h2>

    In the store management area<\/b> → Categories<\/a><\/b>, create subcategories and assign the products there. You can create subcategories just as you’d create categories. One product can be assigned to multiple categories\/subcategories<\/b>.<\/p>

    For example, the product Golden ring<\/b> can belong to:<\/p>

      \n
    1. \n

      The category\/subcategory Accessories<\/b><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    2. \n

      The category\/subcategory Rings<\/b><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    3. \n

      The category\/subcategory Golden rings<\/b><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    4. \n

      The category\/subcategory Golden accessories<\/b>, etc.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>

      \"Categorizing<\/div>

      This way, you may create multiple categories and subcategories:<\/p>

      \"Categorizing<\/div>

      Step 2 – Display Product Subcategories on the Website<\/h2>

      You can display your product subcategories by creating pages and using product list sections:<\/p>

        \n
      1. \n

        Within the website editor, open the Pages and navigation <\/b>panel on the left<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      2. \n

        Click on Add page<\/a> <\/b>– this way, you can create as many pages as many product subcategories you have<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      3. \n

        Rename<\/a><\/b> the new pages according to your product subcategories<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      4. \n

        Insert a product list section<\/a><\/b> within each page<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      5. \n

        Click on the product list section to open its settings, and specify the preferred product subcategory to display<\/b><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      6. \n

        (Optional) Hide<\/a><\/b> product subcategory pages from the website’s navigation menu<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>

        \"Displaying<\/div>

        Make sure to specify the preferred category or subcategory in the product list section settings:<\/p>

        \"Displaying<\/div>

        Step 3 – Structuralize Categories and Subcategories<\/h2>

        On your preferred page – homepage, store page, or any other – add elements (text<\/a><\/b>, buttons<\/a><\/b>, <\/b>or images<\/a><\/b>) to illustrate categories. Then, link<\/a><\/b> those elements with product category pages:<\/p>

        \"Using<\/div>

        On the product category pages, add elements (text<\/a><\/b>, buttons<\/a><\/b>, or images<\/a><\/b>) to illustrate subcategories. Then, link<\/a><\/b> those elements with product subcategory pages:<\/p>

        \"Using<\/div>

        That’s it! This way, you can display multiple product categories and subcategories on your website.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
