How to Add Product Categories in WP Maps

With WP Maps, you can organize your products in an easy way using categories and tabs. In addition, “Categories” and “Tabs” are managed according to the products. Furthermore, WP Maps enables you to create categories with subcategories.

Categories and tags display differently depending on the style, order, and site styles. We recommend being more selective with the number of categories or subcategories you create while considering your available or intended products. “Categories” and “Tabs” are at the forefront, and are responsible for showing your product content.

Creating “Category” Tabs will filter your products or specify your products under certain categories to define them in a more effective way.
