If you maintain your product & category structure in the CMS, there are 2 ways you can add products to categories: - go via the Product itself and add it into one or more categories, or
- go via the Category and add multiple products to it.

| Tip |

Once you've added products to the category, you'll need to clear the Product Cache in order for the products to show on the web. This is done in the CMS via Settings → Cache Management.
Clearing this cache can take quite some time, so it's best to ensure you've made all your changes first!
