Purpose of nleft and nright

Post by Doveman » 17 Nov 2017, 22:23

These 2 elements (nleft & nright) are found in mshop_catalog and mshop_locale_site. Can you tell me what they are used for. How is their value set?

The tree data structure is a nested set and these columns contain the left/right value of each node:
