    Default Better Categories

    I had someone install this thinking there would be options within ADMIN to change the colour/style of Category headings(!).
    Seems I would still ahve to delve into CSS to do this...which my end user will not want to do.
    Anyway my immediate question is...on mouseover the colour changes (which is fine) but then the category text is unreadable. Where/how do I change this to say white?

    site is www.holkat co cuk / index.php - under construction

    Also (should it be a separate thread?) I can't get the sub categories to display on the centre part of the page - all the settings in admin look ok to me.

    thanks

    Something like this:

    #categories a:hover {color:#ffffff;}

    Your categories link background (not hover) is pink in IE and gray in Firefox.

    Check the last setting in Admin - Configuration - Product Listing

    Edit: Arrrgh! search the forums for hsyong (and don't use his/her templates anymore).

    The installing company finally solved the hover colour... still no joy with sub categories shoing on centre of page though.

    Category colours and hover ok now - in Firefox/IE/Opera.

    Still can't get categories to display in centre of page when LH category clicked.

    All settings look ok to me including:
    Show SubCategories on Main Page while navigating = 1

    Suspect it must bve in the coding somewhere?

    As I mentioned, search the forums for hsyong for answers to the subcategory problem.

    Many thanks - found where commented out and replaced with coding copied from another site. Seems to have corrected it.

    It wasn't the template as such - I just got zencart template company to add a bundle of addons - I think the one that caused it was adding a Grid layout to the listings.

    thanks again.
