Manage Categories - Web Version

For Services, a Category consists of a group of services or service bundles. An example of a category would be Haircuts and Other. The specific items within this category would be things such as Men's Haircuts, Women's Haircuts, and Shave. When you add a Vagaro or a custom service or service bundle, you can select which services category to put it under and move it to a different category at any time.

Classes is a category that contains only Vagaro or custom classes. Both Vagaro and custom classes are created in the Classes category and cannot be moved out.

This article covers:

• Add
• Edit (custom categories)
• Insert
• Move
• Delete

To work with categories, start by navigating to Settings > Service / Class Menu.

Add

You can add your own custom categories. When you add a Vagaro service, the assigned Vagaro category is also added. To add a custom category:

1. Click Add, then Category.
   
2. Enter a title and select a color for the new Category, and then click Save.
   

Depending on where you were in the services list when you added the new category, it will be placed either at the end of your services list or immediately following the category or service you were on.

Edit (Custom categories)

1. Click the name of a custom category or click the Action menu (3 vertical dots) for a customer category and then click Edit.
   
2. Edit the category title and color and click Save.
   

Insert

To add a new custom category immediately following a selected existing category:

1. Click the Action (3 vertical dots) menu for a category, click Insert, and then Category.
   
2. Enter a title and select a color for the new Category, and then click Save.
   

Your new category is added to the list following the selected category.

Move

There are two ways to reposition a category on the Services list.

Drag & Drop

Click the 3-bar icon by a category, or just the category name, and drag it up or down on the list. Drop it on top of another category, and it will be positioned to follow that category.

Change Order

1. Click Change Order at the top of the Services tab.
   
   The screen shows categories on the left and services or bundles associated with categories on the right.
   
2. To move a category, select it and then use the up or down arrows to move it to a new position.
   The category you are moving is highlighted.
   
3. Click Apply when done.

Delete

1. Click the Action (3-vertical dots) menu by a category and then click Delete.
   
2. Select whether to delete the category with all associated services and service bundles or to delete just the category.
   
   
   
   • If you delete just the category, any custom services or service bundles under it are moved to the nearest category.
     
   • If you delete the category and associated services, all are deleted. Custom services or bundles are permanently deleted. Vagaro services can be restored by adding the service again.
