In my website I have two categories let us assume Boys toys and Girls toys.

So i want to merge them into a single category named Toys.

Boys toys Category has 183 products.

Girls toys category has 283 products.

Now how do I find 100 products programatically which are in both categories.

Is there any way to find out or manually only do it or it will automatically Marge

  • The question is not clear. You have two categories, Boys Toys (183 products), Girls Toys (283 Products). After that what exactly you want is not clear. Please clarify your requirement.

  • There is a method in Product model, getCategoryIds(), you can use that inside a foreach loop, and check for your IDs. Method returns an array of all category IDs, a product is associated to.

Try this. Replace Boys Toys Id and Girls Toys Id with your respective Id.

This will return the products which are present in both boys & girls toys

$boysToysId=3;
$girlsToysId=5;
$categoryId = array($boysToysId,$girlsToysId);
$collection = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->getCollection();
$collection->joinField('category_id', 'catalog/category_product', 'category_id', 'product_id = entity_id', null, 'left')
           ->addAttributeToFilter('category_id', array('in' => array('finset' => $categoryId)))
           ->getSelect()
           ->group('entity_id')
           ->having('count(*) = ' . count($categoryId));
