An exhibitor product catalog lets attendees browse what each company is showing at your event, grouped by category. In Eventify you set the product categories and subcategories once for the event, then you or the exhibitors add products to each exhibitor profile.
Product categories are the options exhibitors pick from when they add a product. Each category can have its own subcategories.

Nothing is saved until you click Save. Click Cancel to close the window and discard your changes.
The Sub Categories list shows "Select a category to view its associated sub-categories." until you click a category.
You can't delete every category. At least one category is required, so when all categories are ticked, Delete doesn't remove them. If you click Delete with nothing ticked, you'll see "No category selected" or "No Sub-category selected".
Rows left without a name are not saved.
To add many categories or subcategories at once:
Products can only be added when the exhibitor form includes the Products field. It is part of the default exhibitor form, but check it is still there if you have customised the form.
The Products field is available on the exhibitor form only, not the sponsor form. It allows up to 10 products per exhibitor by default. See How to Customise the Exhibitor Profile Form on Eventify for how the form builder works.

The labels in the products section come from your exhibitor form, so they may differ if you renamed them.
Products show on the exhibitor's page and in the event's product listings, where attendees can browse and filter them by category. See How to Use Explore and Browse Products.
Exhibitors can also add and edit their own products from the exhibitor portal or the Eventify app, using the same categories and subcategories you set up. See How to Add and Edit Your Products.
Can I import product categories in bulk?
Yes. In Manage Category & SubCategory, click Import, type one category per line, click Import, then click Save.
Why is the Sub-Category list empty?
The list only shows subcategories that belong to the selected category. Pick a Category first, and make sure that category has subcategories in Update Category / Subcategory.
Why can't I delete all my product categories?
At least one category is required. Keep one category, or add a new one before you delete the old ones.
Can sponsors add products too?
No. The Products field is available on the exhibitor form only.
