rocky Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Make sure that the following section of the "1. Info." tab has at least one category ticked and the default category in the dropdown is one of the ticked categories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yusufzulkarnain Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Hi, I have the same problem and I dont understand how to solve this. where is this what You showed in the image? I use 1.4.8.2 PS help please Hi! Mamandis,I use the newest version (1.4.8.2 PS) too and have the same problem. I have made all my sub-category, but I can't add any product in any that categories and appear this: 1. product must be in at least one Category. 2. product must be in the default category. Fortunately, It solved. I re-install the PS in Softaculous. Certainly I must update the old backup (24,3MB) so that I get new backup (28,7MB). After re-installing, I get that page like the above screenshoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dstump17086 Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Just want to say thanks to 'Groan' (post# 8). I am using version 1.6.0.9 and searched many posts on this issue with nothing working. However clearing the cache did the trick. Kudos extending to 'Groan' for reminding us to sometimes go back to the basics, like a simple cleanup, to resolve the issue. Thank you so much!!

DWNY Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I have a client with the same problem. I've checked the page to add a new product in Firefox, Chrome and MSIE, and I do not see any way to choose a product category on that page. None. This is extremely frustrating, as my client spent hundreds of dollars migrating a 20,000 product database into Presta, and this error is holding up going live with his site. If any moderators happen to read this post, PLEASE try to resolve this issue. We've been trying to solve it for months with no luck. Please.

tplmika Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Dear all, I have the same issue having the same problem for new and exisiting products upon upgrading to version prestashop 1.6.1.1 1. error : Products must be in at least one category 2. error : product must be in the default category 3 Can not load product image. I have find so many thread to resolve the issue but seems the issue still persist on my website. I am not sure either the 3rd party modules or the prestashop upgrading bug is the culprit. Do the experts here find the right solution to this ? I look forward for a community support. I can provide my details upon request. Thanks in advance.

2p12p1 Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 i'm having the same problem as above.. Kinda makes the site useless since i can't add any products :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemoPS Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 The only thing you can do is wait for all tabs to load. I had it on 1.6.1 locally as well, by clicking save and stay just a few seconds the page loaded. Prestashop needs to have all tabs there. It would be nice to have the postProcess check if those tabs are loaded, and if not, skip saving that data. It's only due to server latency Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnilMhaske Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 when i click on product tab and edit one of the record and do product Enabled to either yes or no and click on either save or save & stay button it gives the following errors- 1.Products must be in at least one category. 2.This product must be in the default category. that product had the category also.

NemoPS Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Did you try either waiting or clicking the associations tab before saving? It's just loading slowly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnilMhaske Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Yes, product contains the category also but each time I want to go association tab when I not go to that tab it gives the same error. Like, 1.Products must be in at least one category. 2.This product must be in the default category. But it work's fine on localhost not on live server. Please any help on this why this happened ?

NemoPS Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 It's because the tab does not fully load before you save, you just need to wait until it does Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnilMhaske Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Firstly I edit the product. means, product has some category also when I edit the product by default all associated values are also shown me. but each time I have to go on association tab then and only then product is saved. When I will not go on to association tab that time these error's are shown. If I go on association tab then product is save. Please give me solution for that why I each time I want to go on association tab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemoPS Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 There is no solution, that happens because of your server's latency. You can either have someone have a speed check on your site and make it faster, or move to a better hosting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
