categories not displaying on my site's homepage
Hi,
I'm having a problem displaying the categories on my site's homepage. These are my settings in 'configuration - layout settings':
Categories - Always Show on Main Page 1
Main Page - Opens with Category 0
Categories - Always Open to Show SubCategories 1
The site can be seen here
All suggestions welcome please! :dontgetit

The categories on the homepage are well displayed on my end.
Re: categories not displaying on my site's homepage
Thank you for your reply, I think I may have been a bit fast to submit that post because I had only just put the new site live so it's possible you've seen the old 1.3.9 version.
I can now see the 1.5.1 version running fully and it definitely doesn't show any category boxes on the homepage above the New Products for March box.
I did a clean install of 1.5.1 on a new server and then moved the domain name to the new server this evening.
Help please?!

cjsmiff,
Try switching to the classic template and see what displays
If they do, then you have narrowed this to a custom template file

Hi Kobra,
Thanks. I did this and still no joy. I reverted back to the basic 1.5.1 classic template.
Any other suggestions please?

Using those settings on a default install they show as can be seen HERE
You must have altered a core file

Hi Kobra,
Thank you for your response again. I've been through all of the plugins I have used and reverted back to default versions of files that had been overwritten but still no joy. Any idea which core file might be responsible please? I've looked at tpl_main_page.php, tpl_index_categories.php & tpl_columnar_display.php and tried the default versions again...
Thank you for your time.

Looking, you are using the classic template as your custom template - so how could you have switched to it??
You should create your own template -

What happens if you turn off the SEO/rewrites on your site?
