• Hello,

    is it possible to have several Category Types? For example one category Type “country” with the categories Spain, France, Germany and a sein Category Type “product” with the categories Product A, B and C?

    Thanks a lot
    Christian

  • Yes, you should take a look at custom taxonomies.

    You can set up your own code, however if you don’t want to develop, I think you will find some plugins to manage them easier.
