    Different structure than demo shop - how to list categories for each catalog

    Hi

    In uCommerce I have multiple catalogs with categories. My page structure right now looks like:

    category -> product

    But my goal is to have:

    catalog1 -> category* -> product

    catalog2 -> category* -> product

    ... and so on

    *their can be several categories under each catalog.

    My starting point is the uCommerce Razor Shop, but I'am having trouble showing a list of the categories under the catalog. Should I add a 'Category' document type? and how should I edit the urlRewriting.config?

    Here is a part of the url rewriting file for one catalog: 

    <add name="SecondHandCategoryProductRewrite" virtualUrl="(.*)/c-([0-9]+)/c-([0-9]+)/p-([0-9]+)" rewriteUrlParameter="ExcludeFromClientQueryString" destinationUrl="~/2nd-hand/product.aspx?catalog=$2&amp;category=$3&amp;product=$4" ignoreCase="true" xmlns="" />
<add name="SecondHandProductRewrite" virtualUrl="(.*)/c-([0-9]+)/p-([0-9]+)" rewriteUrlParameter="ExcludeFromClientQueryString" destinationUrl="~/2nd-hand/product.aspx?catalog=$2&amp;product=$3" ignoreCase="true" xmlns="" />
<add name="SecondHandCategoryRewrite" virtualUrl="(.*)/c-([0-9]+)/c-([0-9]+)" rewriteUrlParameter="ExcludeFromClientQueryString" destinationUrl="~/2nd-hand.aspx?catalog=$2&amp;category=$3" ignoreCase="true" xmlns="" />
<add name="SecondHandCatalogRewrite" virtualUrl="(.*)/c-([0-9]+)" rewriteUrlParameter="ExcludeFromClientQueryString" destinationUrl="~/2nd-hand.aspx?catalog=$2" ignoreCase="true" xmlns="" />

    Best regards

    Okay, I will answer this myself :)

    It is really ease to customize the structure by changing the url rewrites.

    If you want to have a catalog -> category -> product structure, you will have to edit the rewrite to:

    <add name="SecondHandCategoryProductRewrite" virtualUrl="(.*)/c-([0-9]+)/c-([0-9]+)/p-([0-9]+)" rewriteUrlParameter="ExcludeFromClientQueryString" destinationUrl="~/2nd-hand/product.aspx?catalog=$2&amp;category=$3&amp;product=$4" ignoreCase="true" xmlns="" />
<add name="SecondHandProductRewrite" virtualUrl="(.*)/c-([0-9]+)/p-([0-9]+)" rewriteUrlParameter="ExcludeFromClientQueryString" destinationUrl="~/2nd-hand/product.aspx?catalog=$2&amp;product=$3" ignoreCase="true" xmlns="" />
<add name="SecondHandCategoryRewrite" virtualUrl="(.*)/c-([0-9]+)/c-([0-9]+)" rewriteUrlParameter="ExcludeFromClientQueryString" destinationUrl="~/2nd-hand/category.aspx?catalog=$2&amp;category=$3" ignoreCase="true" xmlns="" />
<add name="SecondHandCatalogRewrite" virtualUrl="(.*)/c-([0-9]+)" rewriteUrlParameter="ExcludeFromClientQueryString" destinationUrl="~/2nd-hand.aspx?catalog=$2" ignoreCase="true" xmlns="" />

    Notice the "SecondHandCategoryRewrite": 

    destinationUrl="~/2nd-hand/category.aspx?catalog=$2&amp;category=$3

    And of course you will have to map the structure in Umbraco:

    Then you can choose a different template for catalogs, categories and products

    Best regards
