Magento 2 Dynamic Category Extension

Old Products Removal

In Magento 2 Automatic Category extension there is an option that allows you to Remove Other Products from Category. That means once it is enabled all products in the category you are assigning the rule for will be removed and replaced by ones generated automatically according to the set conditions. It is very convenient if you want to completely rearrange your category products.

Automatic Rules Applying

Dynamic Category extension has the cron script running, which applies the dynamic category rules regularly. Once there are some products added they are detected by the cron as those falling into the conditions of dynamic categories rules and assigned into the corresponding Magento category. In case you want the rules to be applied immediately you can press the Apply Rules button, but there isn’t any necessity to do it repeatedly.

Dynamic Category Product Preview

Setting the dynamic category rule conditions you're able to preview products that will be generated to the dynamic category even before applying the rule itself. Preview products option allows you to make sure all of them correspond to the set conditions and can be added to the dynamic category.

Dynamic Product Attributes

In order to simplify your dynamic category rules management, there is the Dynamic Attributes feature. This section in product settings is automatically generated and updated by the cron job for every single product on your Magento 2 store regardless of the dynamic category they belong to or not. Therefore, these product attributes can be used for the dynamic category rules setting as well as for any other purpose, e.g. filtering, sorting, cart price rules, catalog price rules.

When purchasing something people tend to analyze a lot of factors including the quantity of sold products. Dynamic product attributes are generated for different products to simplify the dynamic category creation for you. Except, for other above-mentioned purposes they allow you to create categories based on the best selling products. This way you are able to drive people’s attention to the most popular products and encourage them to buy them too.

Dynamic Sale Category

Having a category to store all discount products is a great marketing strategy to attract customers' attention to particular products since everyone is always looking for the greatest offers to save some money.

Catalog Price Rules

Creating Sales categories with different Is-on-Sale Products is a great idea to help your customers find discount products faster. Magento 2 Dynamic Categories module allows you to create categories based on dynamic product attributes (e.g. Is on Sale). However, you can as well use catalog price rules to assign discount products to sales categories automatically.

Newly Added Products Category

Since people are in the constant search of some unique products to be the first to use "New" is probably one of the most visited website categories. Update it from time to time using dynamic categories to make customers always come back for some specialties.

Automatic Most-Rated Products Category

No matter how much people like something and how good it is described nothing serves as greater evidence of the product's quality as the rating. So why don't let your customer know which products are at the top of the popularity? This way you trigger them to buy some of the goods since everyone else likes it.

Dynamic Brand Category

Are you managing a clothes store and want to move to the next level and start selling brands? Magento 2 Dynamic Category extension might be exactly what you need to keep all your Magento categories organized making it easier for customers to find what they are looking for.

Dynamic Category Based on Product Attribute

Magento 2 categories arrangement can be simplified with the Magento 2 Dynamic categories extension. Since it allows you to choose any from the variety of product attributes and create conditions based on them you are able to optimize your website navigation with the organized dynamic categories like cuisine, activities, etc.

Dynamic Category Based on Dates

Sometimes, to create dynamic categories in Magento 2 you use the date-based product attributes. However, once the date passes you have to update the rule and change the date to assign new products to the category. That is why we created our custom condition for the date attribute that is based on today's +/- n days value. It allows you to have new products added and removed from a category on regular basis without you having to do anything. Now you can create even more dynamic categories like "Back-in-Stock" or "Products of the Month".
