Oscar - Multiple Categories

[ishaq ticklye]

I am using Oscar e-commerce framework on django installation. It provides only categorisation of one type. How can i make 2 different types of categorisation?
Example-
In my e-commerce shop, i have "Categories" & "Brands". "Categories" are say - electronics, clothes, shoes etc. & "Brands" are say - Nokia, Samsung, Spykar, Lee Cooper, Nike, Adidas etc. Now i want to show both of them differently as "Categories" & "Brands" in my main menu.
Is this feature readily available in Oscar? Because as far as i have found out, only one type of categorisation is available..
Request advice..
Thanks..

It's not but that isn't a problem.  Just create your own catalogue app where you define your own Brand model and create a foreign key (or M2M) on the product model.  You might need to adjust the product forms to allow brands to be assigned but that shouldn't be difficult.

Not sure when it was added, but multi-category support is available in the latest master branch.

[Oleg Fish]

Yep, it is
But we must change product site view (template?) to display this categories as default product page shows the only last added.

Hi

Its been a while...

What would be the best way to organise brands now with version 0.7?

redefine catalog app or just add all brand names as categories below a category called something like "Brand's"

Thanks

Michael

Hi Michael,

I don't think anything related to categories has changed. You should be
able to assign multiple categories to your products. You can also
investigate setting them as attributes and then using faceting to drill
down. Search for something on demo.oscarcommerce.com if you don't know
what I mean by faceting.

So it really depends on your use case. Let me know if I can help more.

Regards,

Maik
