Default Viewing category and all subcategory products on a page...
Howdy!

I have been diggin deep in the code of X for a few months now... lotsof tweaks and such... This one has been on the backburner...

What I'd like to do is have a given category show it's own categories and those underneath it.

Given a structure like

Christmas
--Cards
--Wreaths
--Trees
--Specials

If I click a Christmas Category, I want to be able to see the contents of the general Christmas category as well as the sub-category products in Cards, Wreaths, etc...

I'd like to shift the category usage to become weeding factors as they work on a site like www.christianbook.com

Any thoughts on where I would look to get the category cycles?

Thanks,
Jacob

Couldn't you just add the product to the root category AND the sub-category?
