    category dreams

    I would like the ability to assign a category to more than one parent.

    In the absence of faceted navigation, it is necessary to create hundreds of categories - many of which are applicable to multiple parents. We are at over 700 sub-categories, and still not close to what 20 categories with faceted navigation would do.

      Faceted nav can be easily achieved with power search but it's also on the short list and you'll see it in 2015.

      As for many to one categories, that's a different beast all together, but not out of the question.
      Thanks,

        Great to hear that faceted navigation is on the list of future additions/upgrades.

        I have looked at a few sites that have implemented faceted navigation with the power search function and we opted to wait for a true faceted navigation.

        If you visit: www.Novica.com you will see (what I consider) one of the best implementations of faceted navigation. It also has multiple parents for their sub-categories. Would love to see Miva function like this.

              Nicely done Jim. I can only dream to get to that level.
