Fetching records in categories
Item Groups
Due to its tree structure, item groups are handled a little differently. If every requirement is met, item group records are retrieved:
The Item Group's Show in Website field is turned on.
The parent group node is "All Item Groups," and the item group is the top-most group node. or the top-most leaf node (parent is "All Item Groups" and the group is deactivated).
Each card has a link to the corresponding Item Group page.
Other Categories
Simply fetch the records for the other categories. You can add a custom Show in Website field and it will filter out records that have this field disabled if you wish to conceal specific records here as well (for example, in Brand).
Together with Item Group, Brand, etc., custom doctypes that are related to Website Item via a link field may also be placed here.
