There are a few ways to do this and I'm assuming you're using Departments if you're referring to Sitefnity Ecommerce but let me know if I'm wrong.

  • If you use Ecommerce Departments you have access to a more robust widget then Categories and while these cant be intermingled with Sitefinity Pages and thus the Navigation widget it might be a good option.
  • If your products run off one list page and are in departments you can create redirecting pages under Pages and have them point to the corresponding department so something like ~/products/-in-department/departments/top-level, this will then allow you to use a navigation control that mirrors your departments / categories.
  • The last option is to create individual pages for each category and then when you add your product list widget to each page, filter it by a specific department.
