Number of categories

[AnneLondezGlass]

Has the number of categories in one shop changed ? I was listing new products and couldn't find an appropriate category in my shop and the editor offered to create a new one, when I thought I had already created the maximum (10).

With the new shop layout, the number of shop sections a shop can have increased to 15.

Oh great, thank you Bea. I didn't follow the whole thing so I never knew !

You're welcome.

Yes ladies, thank you for the head's up on the 5 new categories. All my art is digital of course, but my shop can get a little confusing with all the stuff available so this gives me a chance to organize better for customers. Also, wasn't there a time not too long ago we only got 5 sections?

I've been selling on Etsy for almost ten years and there might have been only 5 shop sections (I don't remember) in the very early days, but that would have been a long time ago.
