# MultipleParentsAllowed

Set `MultipleParentsAllowed` to `True` to consider more than one category as the parent of a category.

You can assign multiple parents by:

- sending CategoryCreate or CategoryMove with the Parent parameter set to a comma-separated list of parent categories.
- using CategoryImportFromXML to import a hierarchy that contains multiple-parent categories.

NOTE: You cannot set both CategoryInheritance and `MultipleParentsAllowed` to `True` at the same time.
