    Default SubCategories display issue

    Hi,

    I am having a problem with displaying subcategories.

    I do not wish to see subcategories in the categories menu and have succesfully disabled it through the layout settings in admin.

    The trouble is that now I have done this, there is no way of access the subcategories when you select the topcategory.

    Can anybody help...?

    Many Thanks

    Ben :)

    Configuration > Product Listing > Show SubCategories on Main Page while navigating.

    This switch is really located in the wrong admin page, as it doesn't apply to the product listing but to the category listing (another type of index page).

    Ah cool. Nice and easy one. Thought would be under layout settings with the rest of it.

    Cool, thanks.

    Any idea how to make the font for the subcategories links bigger?

    Cheers. Ben. :)

    This is something you should be able to figure out for yourself using the Firefox Web Developer or Firebug tools. Examine the source and the class/id ancestors.

    Hi, Thanks for the reply. I use Google chrome to inspect the code.
    I presume its the IndexCategoriesHeading that I need to change however when I set a font size in the stylesheet it completely messes up the look of the whole website.
    Luckily the website is back to normal since Ive removed the code.
    Sorry still a real novice, could really do with the support.

    Thanks.

    #indexCategoriesHeading controls the column heading, not the subcategory links. Those are
    .categoryListBoxContents {}

    a.categoryListBoxContents means a link named categoryListBoxContents, which doesn't exist. Try .categoryListBoxContents a {}, which means a link inside .categoryListBoxContents.
