Category and Subcategory functionality

[Outlawlb]

I want to know if it is possible to disable a super category if it has subcategories.

What I mean is this:
If a high category "Cat 1" has products then this is fine.
If the second high category "Cat 2" has subcatgegories then I want to ensure that "Cat 2" is not selectable via the categories.

I have the CSS flyout menus installed.

The problem is that category page when you can see others see: http://jeffdavidcasting.com/catalog/...=index&cPath=3

I want to be able to customize these pages if I can to either not be there, or to have much more information.

Is this enough information
Thank you in advance.

If I understand your post correctly, I think you're asking how to make the menu only grow 2 levels deep, and ignore lower levels?

To do that, edit /includes/classes/categories_ul_generator.php
around line 24 you see:

 class zen_categories_ul_generator {
   var $root_category_id = 0,
       $max_level = 5,

Change $max_level value to 2 instead of 5.

No, no I am sorry.

Using that example use the navigation as follows:

I do not want "Wedding Bands" to be functional but its subcategories to be "Fixed center" and "removable Center" to be.

Does this make sense?

You'd have to alter the same file mentioned earlier, but hunt through the code and tell it not to render a usable URL in the HREF for categories which have child records. Will require some PHP skills and a good understanding of parent-child logic as implemented in Zen Cart categories.

Thank you. I wanted to know and if I pursue this I will let you know.
