I see it now - thanks!

[alphastara]

Thank you for the great feedback on the mod. I will sit down and try and make a *cleaner* version of it, maybe even the option to enable/disable it through admin....if anyone wants to help or make suggestions let me know.

What does this code produce? I haven't tried it out yet.

[idesign123]

Thanks for the great mod!
I am hoping to customize it one more step though.

Can someone help me (for pay if needed)?

Desired Customization:

- My client loves the way the left menu behaves, but does not like that the main area ALSO shows the submenu names.

- He would instead like to have it so you click the main item, and ALL products in that section (including subcategories) appears. Then when you click a subcategory, it just shows the items in that subcategory.

- Example: http://www.800paintball.com
Click 'Apparel' and all apparel products appear.
The click 'Gloves' and just the gloves appear.

If someone can set this up I would be most appreciative (and would be happy to pay you for your time).

Any takers?

Anyone get this mod to work for 4.0.19 yet? I tried it on a fresh install and the links did not work?

[SMG]

Has anyone got this code working for the latest version of Xcart?????

Does anyone know the code differences??

Hi guys, I really, REALLY want to use this mod, to at least get 1 level deep, but my problem is I am using the bluegreentech skin and when I use any of the code from this thread, nothing works properly... the categories aren't linked to, and if I try to fix the href's myself (I am a total noob) I stuff it up completely.

Currently my categories.tpl looks like this

{* $Id: categories.tpl,v 1.23 2004/06/24 09:53:29 max Exp $ *}
{capture name=menu}

{if $active_modules.Fancy_Categories ne ""}
{include file="`$fancycategories_config.modules_path`/fancy_categories.tpl"}
{else}
{if $config.General.root_categories eq "Y"}
{section name=cat_num loop=$categories}

<li><FONT class="CategoriesList"><A href="home.php?cat={$categories[cat_num].categoryid}" class="VertMenuItems">{$categories[cat_num].category}</A></li></FONT>
{/section}
{else} {section name=cat_num loop=$subcategories}
<li><FONT class="CategoriesList"><A href="home.php?cat={$subcategories[cat_num].categoryid}" class="VertMenuItems">{$subcategories[cat_num].category}</A></FONT>
{/section}
{/if}
{/if}
{/capture}
{ include file="menu.tpl" dingbats="dingbats_categorie.gif" menu_title=$lng.lbl_categories menu_content=$smarty.capture.menu }

Can someone help me to get it to display at least 1 level deep when a category is selected, exactly as the very first post requested?

Thanks heaps.. even a pointer in the right direction would be cool.. thanks!
