    Default Re: Listing sub category products in the main cat

    Well actually I could mind since no one deleted this yet..

    The thing is that I'd like to list ALL subcategories in the main category too..

    So basically I'd have

    1. maincategory
    1.1. submenu cat1
    1.1.1. subcat 1.1.
    1.1.2. subcat 1.2.
    1.1.2.1. subsubcat

    So I'd like the main category list all products from the subcategories... And submenu cat1 to list all categories and their products below it and so on... BUT HOW?

    Default Re: Listing sub category products in the main cat

    Ok I'll still try to clarify since this is quite important and there MUST be a way for this..

    I have following categories and subcats:
    FW09-> (7)

    |_ Boys-> (6)

    |_ T-Shirts (2)
    |_ Shirts (1)
    |_ Hoodies (1)
    |_ Jackets (1)
    |_ Jeans, pants & shorts (1)

    |_ Girls->

    |_ Accessories (1)

    If I click the FW09 I'd like to list ALL products in its subfolders since FW09 does not have any products

    If I click boys I'd like to list all products in its subfolders as well..

    I think this is a major loss for zen cart if there isn't a functionality allowing this..

    So is there any other route for this besides category linking in the admin?

    I wouldn't either mind doing this with new product listing module... However if I click fex FW09 folder now it lists only products from category Accessories since folders Boys and Girls are empty (however their subfolders are not..)

    Could I somehow make the new products module to dig deeper?

    http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=88215
    Is this the one?
    It says;
    "5. A number of users wanted to list all products in all sub-categories of a specific category, they can take advantage of this mod as well, since it stores all sub-cats of a specific cat in $tree['cat_id']['sub_cats'] array, however, it currently stores the first sub-level, so you have to write a small function to go thru the tree and gather the deepest cats (assuming you understand what I mean ^^)"

    Also I have seen in other post that people have used this modification to list all sub category products under the main category ok, but the post is filled with bits and pieces of code. I am looking for a section of the post or files to uploade that does the job without having to search through 50 pages to figure it out.

    well. there is a post which yellow1912 provide a download links. the post was not initaite by yellow. but the download link is in 1st page.

    the original settings was to list all products plus it's categories images under main pages. well you can change it to show under top categories within a minute.

    I think yellow is trying to css in accordion. but that lack of css/jquery stlyes.
