OK! I got it to work BUT... Serious problem...

It threw up a grid of my categories, and what it used were the category images. Mind you, not the sub-categories, but the category main level.

I did a View Source and found the code as such below, and I notice it's saying it's "Display grid of available sub-categories"... What it shows is all the sub categories images in a 3 per row layout, but the images are designed to be like a sub-header, across almost the whole width of the center column, so they're bunched up and running off the edge of the body.

I've figured as much that the culprit is in the tpl_index_categories.php file, but I didn't know what it would do if I commented it out, so balihr I'll wait for you to get back from vacation before attempting this again.

Other than that problem, the few images I put in there were good, they faded between each other so I'm assuming the rest of it is working as it's supposed to. I would experiment further but this is an active site and I don't want to get any complaint calls right now...

Please advise...

I've disconnected it for now and ran the uninstall patch; right now all the files are in place except the tpl_index_categories.php file, and I can easily install it again, install the SQL patch and try it again later...

Edit: I should mention, site is rossales.com, and you'll notice, I only run one side column, on the right, and at the top of that column is the list of categories. This is why I wanted to ask about commenting out the section in the php file before actually trying it...

Here's the section of the source code I mentioned:
