    Default Showing Products in both a sub-category and as a standalone in the navigation

    I've just started working with a client who has a site, www.yusselsplace.com.

    They have two versions of the same Weddings category, one that is a standalone which is seen in the left navigation and one that's a sub-category under Celebrations. I want them to use only one version for a lot of reasons so is there a way to keep a single section both as a sub-category and to post it in the left column like it is now?

    It's probably not complicated but I'm not that well versed in Zen Cart yet so any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Do you want the Weddings technically a subcat of Celebrations, with an additional link directly to Weddings from the main categories menu? That is something that Categories Dressing from Plugins can do easily, as a "heading" with a link which is styled to look like other top categories.
    Cat Dressing can do the converse too, if that is what you want.

    Thanks for replying. Yes, that's what I want to do. Keep the Categories header as it is at the top - when you click on that one of the sub-categories would be Weddings. Also, be able to have Weddings standalone as a link in the left column.

    Your plug-in can do this and allow me to keep it looking and functioning like it does now?

    Yes, it can. By default, it will make a bunch of styling changes as demos of the mod's functions, but you can eliminate all you want and go back to the basic styling.
