Enter the general values like name, position, and description, and add images.
Display Mode- Display mode is about which content detail is visible on the category page. There is three option

The Issue:
When I select a parent category in order to create a sub-category, I get a database error – SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1267 Illegal mix of collations (utf8mb4_unicode_ci,IMPLICIT) and (utf8mb4_general_ci,IMPLICIT) for operation ‘=’ (SQL: update
categoriesset_lft= case when_lftbetween 16 and 17 then_lft-2 when_lftbetween 14 and 17 then_lft+2 else_lftend,_rgt= case when_rgtbetween 16 and 17 then_rgt-2 when_rgtbetween 14 and 17 then_rgt+2 else_rgtend where (_lftbetween 14 and 17 or_rgtbetween 14 and 17))Attempted Solution:
I edited the default database collation to utf8mb4_unicode_ci in operations but I still receive the exact same error.
Can you help, please?
Thanks in anticipation.
