# Coustomizing category-syncronization

 * Hello I have been using moowoodle now for a longer time. All works fine, BUT:
   
   On my moodle (3.4) I use other categories than in my shop. In my shop I use more
   and different categories. For example I have same course in different shop catagories.
   And I have some different names of categories in my shop. Each time I syncronize
   Moodle->shop a lot of my settings get lost and I have lot of work to reset. Is
   there a save way to ONLY syncronize courses but not categories? Perhaps by ommitting“
   core_course_get_categories: Return category details” in webservice of moodle?
   I know, I then have to put new syncronized courses into respective shop categories
   manual, but that would be far less work than recreating categories. I’m a bit
   afraid in testing that. But would that solve my Problem? Is there any other way?
   Thanks Rolf

 * Hi Rolf, thanks for reaching our support.
 * Please follow this below method :
    – After removing “core_course_get_categories:
   Return category details” in webservice of moodle
 * – Then go to “your wordpress directory”/wp-content/plugins/moowoodle/classes/
   class-dc-woodle-sync.php file and comment out this code “$this->sync_categories();”
   line no. 60
 * Let us know if this works for you.

 * Thanks a lot for this advice.
    I will give it a try when I have to syncronize
   courses next time.
