Question Include sub-categories in menu

Is it possible to include the sub-categories in the 'Categories' menu? Using X-Cart Pro, 4.4.2 on Linux. Lucid, 3 column layout. The Flyout Menu module is great, but don't want the flyout part. Just all the sub-categories showing up indented under each category. So, maybe there's a way to modify the categories.tpl file to include the sub-categories in the menu without a click first to see them?

I looked through all the third party modules for menus and can't seem to find this functionality. Nothing fancy, just:

Category 1
Sub-Category 1
Sub-Category 2
Sub-Category 3
Sub-Category 4
Category 2
Sub-Category 1
Sub-Category 2
Sub-Category 3

etc...

Thanks,
Mark

Check Flyout menus settings in admin - you can switch to tree-like view

Default Re: Include sub-categories in menu

With tree-like view you still have to click to see the sub-categories. I don't want clicks. Show the tree-like view expanded (after a click) by default is what I want. So, when the page loads, you see the expanded menu by default.

Any ideas?

You have to either design your own css based menu or modify the tree-like one to act as you want. I have done similar customization on 4.4.2 on the tree-like menu. You can contact me if you cant do it yourself
