    Default multiple category sideboxes

    I am a REALLY new user and am not yet proficient with PHP. My question is this: Can I have multiple sideboxes that all reference back to CATEGORY? I want to have separate sideboxes for the top level of each category. Why? The amount of categories and sub-categories will, I think, overwhelm a single sidebox. PLUS I think it will provide a nicer interface for the customers. Also, most importantly, that's what my client wants.

    Check the Categories Dressing mod, which will allow you to style the Categories box such that it appears to be multiple boxes.

    Also search the forum for multiple categor* for some other threads, and, as always, check the links at the bottom of this page.

    If you absolutely need separate boxes that can be in different places on the page, try the Parent Categories Separated In 3 sideboxes thread. Be aware that that will be a lot of PHP code work.
