I haven't really seen anything I've been able to get to work.

I want to display one level of subcategories in the categories menu on version 4.1.3

I tried one mod that was posted but was unable to get it working, think it might have been for 4.0.x

If you know of anything, thanks in advance.

How about PhilJ's CSS based mods?

Four level vertical flyout category menu

It was suggested, but I was hoping for a freebie.

I've spent too much already on a site thats not making any money, I'm hoping on changing that of course, but until I do I've gotta cut back

Solution for 4.1.6

Cat A
--Cat A1
--Cat A2
Cat B
--Cat B1
--Cat B2

Only one modification in incude/categorie.php

Search for this in your code :
#
# Override subcategory_count for Admin area
#
if(!empty($subcategories) && ($current_area == 'A' || ($current_area == 'P' && $active_modules['Simple_Mode']))) {
$product_counts = func_query_hash("SELECT categoryid, COUNT(*) FROM $sql_tbl[products_categories] WHERE categoryid IN ('".implode("','", array_keys($subcategories))."') GROUP BY categoryid", "categoryid", false, true);
foreach($subcategories as $k => $v) {
$subcategories[$k]['subcategory_count'] = func_query_first_cell("SELECT COUNT(subcat.categoryid) as subc FROM $sql_tbl[categories] USE INDEX (PRIMARY) LEFT JOIN $sql_tbl[categories] as subcat ON subcat.categoryid_path LIKE CONCAT($sql_tbl[categories].categoryid_path, '/%') WHERE $sql_tbl[categories].categoryid = '$k' GROUP BY $sql_tbl[categories].categoryid");
$subcategories[$k]['product_count_global'] = $subcategories[$k]['product_count'];
$subcategories[$k]['product_count'] = isset($product_counts[$k]) ? intval($product_counts[$k]) : 0;
}
}



then add this just below the line :


//Subcategories in menu
function func_getallsubcat()
{
$raj =func_get_categories_list("", true, "all");
$raj1=$raj['all_categories'];
$ll=array();
foreach ($raj1 as $k=>$val)
{
if($val['parentid']!="0")
{
$ll[$val['parentid']][]=$val;
}
}
return $ll;
}
$smarty->assign("allsubcategories", func_getallsubcat());
//Subcategorie in menu - end

thank you

I forget this line too

in skin1/customer/categories.tpl

Where you need to show the subcategorie
{assign var=in value=$c.categoryid}
{foreach from=$allsubcategories.$in item=c }

and the link to show subcategories
<a href="home.php?cat={$c.categoryid}" class="yourclassforsub">{$c.category}<br></a>

thank you I was forogotten it in my previous post

Thank you
