Admin: Unable to move category as first child into another category

[cngJo]

PHP Version

8.2.17

Shopware Version

6.5.8.9 / 6.2.2.0

Expected behaviour

The editor should be able to move categories to be a subcategory of another category, even if the other category does not have any child categories at the moment.

Actual behaviour

It is only possible to move categories "into" / as a subcategory of another categories when the category already has children.

Currently, you need to create a dummy category from the menu as the first child from the target category and then move the actual category to be another child.

How to reproduce

Create a new category somewhere and try to move this category to be the first child of another category.

sw-admin-move-categories.mov

A current workaround would be to create a dummy category directly as a child category and then move the category as a second child.

(Very hard to explain, therefore I created the small Video 😉)
