How to exclude a category from "All"

Hi there!

Quick question - do you mean you want all dogs that have the category "Adopted" to not be displayed when "All" is selected, or do you mean you don't want the actual category "Adopted" to display in the category menu?

It isn't possible to exclude products from "All", but there are a couple of workarounds:

  • When an animal has been adopted, you could move it from the 'adopt' Products page to an 'adopted' Products page. This would allow you to build a page of successfully adopted animals on a separate page (preferred).
  • Alternatively, you could hide the 'All category' and create a new category, for example, "All available". You could then manually place each unadopted animal into this category and remove the category when they are adopted. This isn't the preferred option because you'd also need some script (requires a Business plan or above) to preselect the new category when the page loads, otherwise the "All" category will be shown by default.

This could work for us. I'm trying to figure out how to move an adopted dog from one product page to another? Is it possible to move a product (dog) to a different product page or would I have to manually re-enter all the information as a new product under Adopted?
