Can't add product to category, category missing - opencart

Question

I'm using Opencart 2.0.1.1. I've added a new category with a filter, this is working great. Now I want to add a product to that category, I've added the product, but in the Links tab I can't assign the product to the right category, because it is missing.

The newly created category is not showing. What could be the problem? Am I missing something?

Answer 1

The drop down list you see in the category field under links tab is only a helper list. It shows the first 5 alphabetically.

Type the first few letters of your category name and it will appear.
