    Default hover over category names on main page

    On my main page I have a list of my categories with a brief description underneath and a link to their respective pages. How can I make it so that when you hover over the category name you can see a list of the products within that category?

    On a separate note, I tried v154 without any left sideboxes against various virtual tablets, cellphones, etc. and it was totally mobile friendly.

    Default Re: hover over category names on main page

    Thanks Cobra;

    Unfortunately that is not what I'm looking to do. If you go to my website, www.pazdarwinery.com (right now it is still using v 152 which I'll be updating in the next day or two to v154), it shows categories in the middle of the main page with the start of a vignette underneath them. If you click on the vignette, it will take you to that respective category page. I would like to set it up so that if you hover over the category name, it will give you a list (possibly pop-up box) of the wines within that category.

    I did a search on the web and found a way to do it.

    Go into define Main Page under tools. Before each category name put in <a href=" " title="whatever products are in each category followed by the return key to list them">
    After the category name put in a </a>

    If going this route, there is a function or a few that can help generate this list. I believe they are all/mostly in the includes/functions/functions_categories.php file that would return a list of product information for the associated category. So as each category "name" is displayed, the associated products list can be presented.
