I want to assign a specific child category to multiple parent categories .

For e.g, If there are 2 parent categories ,say, Dell Laptop and Sony Laptop and a child category named as Laptop accessories. I want to include the “Laptop Accessories” category in both “Dell Laptop” and “Sony Laptop” .

By default,this functionality is not in Magento, I need to create 2 child categories named as “Laptop accessories” and then assign it to parent categories.

How can I solve this issue? Does any have worked on it?

Thanks in advance!

    Category Parent Child relationships in Magento are one to many (one parent category has many children, each child has exactly one parent). The database schema does not allow what you want to do.

    If your issue is creating the multiple “Laptop” categories quickly, consider creating your categories as a CSV and using a tool like Unirgy’s RapidFlow to import them, or alternatively writing a setup script.
