    I am still a little confused.
    I have Automobiles as my Parent category and set Automobiles-New Car Dealer as one of my Children categories.

    When working with Exported data, that would make:
    Post_Category: Automobiles,Automobiles-New Car Dealer
    and
    Default_Category: Automobiles

    Correct?

    Or is it more sensible to make Automobiles-New Car Dealer the Default_Category?

    Imagine this is obvious to others, but still confusing to me!

    There is a column for default category, yes.

    If it was me, I would add the parent category also, sure. Why not?

    Alex, sorry, I’m not understanding.

    If you have Parent and Child in the Post_Category
    Church,Church-Baptist

    What is optimal to have in the Default_Category
    Church
    or
    Church-Baptist?

    Does it matter?

    What is your opinion?

    I am exporting a boatload of listings and I would like to change and import them in the most proper manner…but am not sure what that is!

    I’d like to only do the export, change, import bit once.

    Please give me your opinion, okay?

    The main purpose of default category is to select which category image is applied to the listing. Choose the category that best represents the listing.

    Aha! I understand. (Always a nice way to start the day!)

    In above instance, guess that would be Baptist — for my purposes — now I know there isn’t a “right-er” answer…Baptist would be most focussed category representation.

    Which will make my export,change,import “dance” easier!

    Thanks much…you really made my task easier…AND more understandable!
