Not sure I follow...you want a new menu, a new category...what?

[sohaibkhan]

A New Category box where I can add additional products/category

[balinor]

Still not following you. Do you mean just creating a new cateogry and adding products to it? You do that in the 'Categories' section of the admin.

sohaibkhan Hello, I have added the categories boxes but no content is showing up. It was just giving me the heading but there is no links no products. already have sub categories I dont know if they are going to show in those boxes or what is going to happend. Please let me know

AllNatural I just installed this mod too, but got the same problem as sohaibkhan; the headings are showing, but no content... (version 4.1.3)

Edit your Category Position (POS) so each category shows up in the appropriate category box. Example: categories1.tpl calls for categories numbered from (POS) 100 to 199. " {if $categories[cat_num].order_by > 100 and $categories[cat_num].order_by < 199} "
