Title: Categories are duplicated on different languages
Post by: abcart_ecm on May 15, 2014, 02:17:01 PM

Hi
If I setup categories and subcategories in English, then I see the english names for them appear also
in the Spanish and German part of the shop.
If I setup categories and subcategories in Spanish, then I see the spanish names for them appear also in the English and German part of the shop.

I can not setup categories and subcategories separately in each of the languages of the shop
without having them appear also in the other languages.

What am I doing wrong ?

 ??? Where do you see this? Categories are shown only in one language in storefront. I can not even imagine how this is possible?

Yes it must be my problem. A first shop I did was without this problem. The second shop I am doing now, well I must have walked into some kind of confusion. Isn´t it so that if you setup categories and subcategories in one language that this is copied to other languages as well just to fill there the empty place holders ? And then you have to go there and change the text in the according language ? Anyway abantecart is one hell of a shop system that puts the rest in the shadow.

Hello. If you need different categories on different shop please set up multistore (http://www.abantecart.com/ecommerce-documentation/71-admin-user-manual/system/multistore-set-up)
Without multistore you able to create one category for all languages but with different translation name

You mean "with" instead of "without" ?
