    Does setting a “default” category have a purpose? And what would best practice be for choosing the default – the parent category (eg. Pizza Shops) or the category with region (eg. Pizza Shops Victoria).

    Also when using the csv bulk uploader, how do you specify which category is the default?

    Hello Adele, choosing a category is something you should setup based on how you plan to organize things on your site, it could be misleading for the average user, if he sees a lot of categories.
    You can avoid using Victoria, for example, in the category because if the user is looking for a pizza shop in victoria he probably is already on the victoria area, in the map/page.

    About the CSV, the first category is the default (separate the categories with a comma, e.g. “cat1, cat2, cat3)

    The default category determins the category name that will appear in the listing URL when more then one category is selected.

    Thanks
