To not lose old sorting of categories, create a backup from Sortbot. Then remove all old sorting so it does not come in conflict with Sortbot. Now you can sort all categories for the first time. As a large amount of products positions are being sorted the first time this process can take multiple hours.

After this first sync is done, all categories will be sorted one time per day at midnight as long as cron jobs are enabled.
