How do I set the number of columns my Product Categories display in on my website?

After logging into the system, in the upper right click on the Admin Button with your username and go to Settings > Website Settings > Products, you will see a setting for the number of Category Columns. This feature is actually for the older version of our website system, so if you have a Responsive website (mobile-friendly), this option will not work for you.

Instead, your categories will automatically display in dynamically generated columns. What that means is, based on the size of the display a visitor is using, it will dynamically display from 1 to 4 columns of Categories, and will use what page width it has as efficiently as possible. If you have the Faceted Product Search option active, your first column will be search and filter functions, and then up to three columns of categories and products, depending on the width of the display viewing the page. If you make a change in the settings, be sure to remember to scroll to the bottom of the screen and click Save, or your changes will not display.
