Oh! I thought you were referring to the left bar of categories. I don't know how to fix it, but I did F12 both pages and there is quite a difference between the two pages after the:
<body id="indexHomeBody"> ==$0

Re: v1.5.7b Not Showing Categories on Main Page
The whole centerBoxWrapperContent appears to be missing in the newer site. Is it possible one template was cloned before the settings were updated?
A little help with colors.

Re: v1.5.7b Not Showing Categories on Main Page
I did a fresh install of 1.5.7b and a fresh install of the template I am using (lite_grey). I have not messed with the default template. When I switch back and forth between Lite Grey and Classic Contemporary Green, the categories don't show up on the main page. That would indicate to me that something is missing from the core files I installed? Sorry to be a bit dumb about all this.

Re: v1.5.7b Not Showing Categories on Main Page
Was there a fix for this?
I'm having the same issue on new localhost install of ZC 157b using a copy of live store db (db was updated to 157b). No top level categories are displayed on main page. If I set a cat ID under Main Page - Opens with Category to one of the other cat IDs, they will display on main page. If set to 0, they do not.
If I use the index page header_php.php from ZC 156, top level categories are displayed correctly on the main page.Experience is what you get when you don’t get what you want…

Same issue with default install of ZC 157b using either of the two default templates and demo products...no top level cats are displayed on index page.

Yes, for v157, v157a, v157b, replace /includes/modules/pages/index/header_php.php with this:
