I’m using the Pizza version of Lafka. I’m serving more than just pizza and need a total of 8 categories for the Main Menu. I tried adding categories from the Categories dropdown in Appearance–Menus, but the ones I used (Food, Party Time, etc.) seem completely different from the Pizza, Sides, Drinks, etc. category pages and won’t display my products on them. Three questions: 1) Where are those category pages coming from? 2) Is it possible to duplicate one of the category pages I like and use them for different purposes? 3) If that’s impossible, how do I make the categories that I have available display my products? Thanks so much for your help!

Hi contessa10,

1. The categories tab in Appearance > Menus > Edit menu is for the blog (post) categories. You’d need to use the “Product Categories” tab instead. IF it’s not present on the list, click on “Screen Options” label in the top-right corner of the page and make sure it’s checkbox is ticked. That’s not theme related, it’s how WordPress menus work.

2. Not really sure what do you mean by “duplicate one of the category pages I like and use them for different purposes”. Please, explain more. What would you like to duplicate and where. And use it how?

3. You’d need to assign each of your products to some category.

Thank you so much! I didn’t know about the Screen Options part and now I’m good to go!
