HELP - Can't create category - something wrong

[tino.schlegel]

Have you installed the security patch? Sounds like it but you did not install all files properly. Please reinstall the security patch and take care that you put all the files in the correct folders!!

Categories have a 'folder' icon, products have a 'note'(sheet of paper) icon

You cannot have both together in a category.

Ok, I went into these security patches screen that you adviced me.... here is an immediate problem already.

In the description it states I have to unzip and upload the patch to /includes/extra_configures/

The issue is that I DONT have an "extra_configures" folder in my includes folder. Do I need to create this manually and after that upload the unzipped file in here?

Many thanks in advance.

If you really don't have that folder, go ahead and create it.

Hi, just to get back on my previous post, I found out I DO have this folder, but that is in ADMIN/includes/extra_configures

So I uploaded the file here rather than creating the folder in the includes folder. Did I do this correct?

Also, I uploaded all the files as shown in the security patches within my admin folders, but I am STILL having the same problem.

I am still not able to add a category!!! I am really about to lose all hope.

HELP !!! WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT THIS ?

If the patch instructions say "/includes/" they mean the base folder; if they say
"/admin/includes/" they mean the /includes/ in your admin folder.
