Catalog Categories

Catalog Categories group entries on your Catalog page (brand brochures, PDFs, logos). This is separate from Product Categories used for sellable products.

In Beentara:

• List: Products → Catalog → Catalog Categories (/catlog-catgeory)
• Create / edit: Add category button → modal

Route spelling

The admin URL uses /catlog-catgeory (legacy spelling). The API uses catlog-category on the backend.
