Newly Added Category Doesn’t Appear in Dropdown Until Page Refresh – Product Page (Admin Panel)

Nobody has claimed this yet.

Describe the bug
On the Product page in the admin panel, when a new category is added using the dropdown interface, it is not immediately reflected in the dropdown list. The newly created category only becomes visible after manually refreshing the browser.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Go to the Product page in the admin panel
Use the category dropdown to add a new category
Attempt to select the newly added category from the dropdown
Observe that it does not appear until you refresh the page
Expected behavior
The dropdown should automatically update and include the newly added category immediately without requiring a page refresh.

OS: Windows 11

Browser: Chrome

Version: 123.0.6312.86

Additional context
This is likely due to missing state updates or failure to re-fetch category data after creation. A real-time update or dynamic refresh of the dropdown options would significantly improve workflow efficiency for admins.

Start at the Product page in the admin panel and reproduce the category-creation flow described in the issue. Trace how the category dropdown receives its options after creation; done means the newly created category appears immediately without a browser refresh.
