Deleting Categories

---

Warning!

Deleting a category will also delete any sub-categories within that category.

When a category is deleted, all items within it, and any that reside within any sub-categories beneath it, are moved to the Unassigned category if they have not been assigned to other categories elsewhere.

Deletions are not reversible!

Remember to check your menu structure before performing any deletions, to ensure that you are deleting the correct category / categories!

5. This will delete the category and any sub-categories within it. All items within the category and any that reside within any sub-categories beneath it will be moved to the Unassigned category
