I only tried one at a time, but neither worked.

Thanks

Are you currently wanting catMenuSwirlTop.png to show above category 15 (Summer Tops)? Where do you have that image saved?

/includes/templates/satinBlack/images/

In order for the headings and category images to adjust to multiple languages, they must be saved in the /buttons/language/ folder, not the /images/ folder, like this:

/includes/templates/iC_AthemeV1.3/buttons/greek/catbg22_23_27.gif

This is described in detail in the readme.

I... already did that, the image is saved in
includes/templates/satinBlack/buttons/english/catMenuSwirlTop.png

So that's not it....:(

Then I don't know what the problem could be without seeing more of your current settings...

Unfortunately, I am about to leave for a two week business trip and will be offline for a while. I'll check in when I return.

I am new to Category Dressing and trying to get a grasp of it. I apologize if this question has been asked.

I have this code that appears in my web page.

<li class="cat-top"><a class="cat-selected" href="http://www.stitchboutiqueboston.com/index.php?main_page=index&amp;cPath=3"><img src="includes/templates/stitchboutique/buttons/english/catimg3.gif" alt="" width="140" height="22" title="Fibers" /></a></li>


What do I need to change so that catimg3.gif does not appear for cPath=3. TIA TOM :cool:

Thank you for a great mod!

I have one question though, hope someone can help with this:

I have a 3 level system:

-Top cat1
--Sub cat2
---Sub sub cat3
---Sub sub cat3
---Sub sub cat3

Not all Sub cats2 include a sub-sub-cat3, and therefore I would like to Show only Top-cats1 and Sub-cats2 by default, and then open up the Sub-sub-cats3 only when a customer clicks on it.

If a sub sub cat is open, then only show the sub sub cat which is open and not all the sub-sub-cats.

EASIER: I want it exactly like this: www.tilbryllupet.no

Is there a way to do this?

I really tried to read your define-explanation, but sorry - I didn't get the hang of it.

tcjay - Just delete the demo image catimg3.gif from /includes/templates/your_template/buttons/english/.

Gomlers - You want to use the chcategories option as described in the readme, and set the define to show top and first-level subcats, plus the active sub-subcat branches. This will be

define('CAT_BOX_ACTIVE_LEVEL', '4|0|1');

* The "active" field controls whether categories outside the current active tree will display: 0=all tops/1=full active tree only/2=active tree only (all tops when no cat selected)/3=full active tree, others limited per level controls/4=like 3, active branches only/5=like 1, no tops.
* The "highest_level" field controls whether top categories will display: 0=all levels/1=no topcats/etc.
* The "deepest_level" field controls whether subcategories will display: 1=only first subcats/2=first & second subcats/.../9=all levels down to 9.

I need some initial help with where to alter the look/feel of this add on. I have it installed, but cannot figure out how to remove the "Major Heading", "Minor Heading", "Cat 3 Sample" I also want to do something with that orange border around the menu, and I don't know why it is split into "2" boxes leaving the last 2 categories in their own box. I also tried to add a horizontal line to break up the category options by messing with:

define ('CAT_BOX_HEADING_1','1|0||');//new list - no headings but it didn't work properly. Can someone help me understand where my alterations should be done, and anything else important I should know about the addon.

My website is: www.mercenarypb.com

Furthermore, is this add on really necessary to just add horizontal lines between categories? That is all I really want to do. Maybe in the future I will customize my menu more, but right now I don't see that happening

Thank you for responding. You have helped me with issues in the past and I appreciate your help. I read the readme file but it is a little confusing.

I only installed the first part of the mod (contents of the includes file) as I don't use sub categories in my menu tree. Was this right?

are you saying that I don't need the mod to place a horizontal line between category options? And since I already have the dressing mod, should I use it?

Can you explain how I would change the categories to display "block" as you mentioned, and where I can find out how to get rid of those headers that were installed from the dressing mod. I looked through many pages of the support thread, but didn't find anything specific to what I wanted to do.

--

I want to be sure I understand how this mod works. Is it correct that the stylesheet for the mod handles the styling of the category sidebox, the categories_define... Is to turn certain items on/off, and the tpl_categories I have no clue what that's for.

Thanks again!
