Tag Category Search

GT_PR_011

Infigo gives you the ability to apply a tag search to your categories, allowing your users to view all of the products within a particular category then filter the results to find exactly what they need.

This action is undertaken using a range of Tag features available within Infigo, namely:

  • Product Tags - Individual tags that are applied to products. Multiple tags can be applied to a single product, whilst multiple products can be given a single tag.

  • Tag Categories - A grouping of tags, such as "pens" and "notebooks" and "mugs" tags being grouped within the "Office supplies" tag category.

  • Tag Category Search Sets - The ability to group multiple tag categories within a single search. These search sets can be applied to a regular product category, meaning you can filter between its contained tag categories.
