I know this has been posted about a zillion times, but I have researched this problem. Done EVERYTHING previous threads have advised and still nothing!

When I click on a category in the sidebox and it opens to the category page, my subcategories do not show in the top center of the page. I have switched to the default template and the subcategories DO show BUT they show twice instead of just once.

Product Listing>
Show SubCategories on Main Page while navigating = 1

Layout Settings>
Categories - Always Open to Show SubCategories = 1

I do not have products placed in categories along with sub categories. The tpl_index_categories.php is the default file with no changes made. Zen version is 1.3.8a

I have no idea what I'm missing. I've been trying to figure this out for weeks!

Thanks in advance for your help!
