can you just tell me what code to add and what files to edit.

I want this heading

define ('CAT_BOX_HEADING_1','1|0|||Tribal Artifacts|1|Shop by Categories|2');

to contain my categories with cpath 1,73,81,82,2, and maybe more but if you go check what i've customized those categories is under this sub-heading.

sorry i keep on posting . you mean i sort the order in its editing page "you mean in catalog/categories/products" set the sort order? (found in this thread page) Ok. i've tried to sort out 2 categories and refreshed my site but the two categories still stayed under the sub-heading Shop by Tribal Groups.

You need to give all of the categories sort orders, not just a few of them.

Your headings are looking good now.

[corditreasures]

Thank you very very much for your time..

Hi! yap all have sort orders but as you can see the others does not belong to the correct heading. sorry for being a pain...

I am trying to put those categories below "Tribal Artifacts shop by category but the categories stayed under different heading"

i'm experimenting but i can't get it to where i want to. can i edit other files other ategories_dressing_defines.php and stylesheet_categories_dressing.css? thanks

The sort order is the only thing that will put the categories in the right places. What are the sort orders for the categories now?

[corditreasures]

Hello! Thank you very very much for your time and for helping me out on this, much appreciated. its an excellent mod.

Anyway i've already customized the looks to my liking. First i remove the defines. then i created another sort order. 10-20-30 then one by one created a defines for each and look! its looking good!

check it out.. My site enhance in looks by this great great mod

again BIG BIG Thanks!

[gjh42]

Looking good! I'm glad to see the capabilities of the mod well used.

Great mod! Only I can't figure out how to hide empty categories (not subs). I've fiddled around with the defines page forever and can't get it to do what I want. Anything other than 0 in the code hides ALL my categories.

Any thoughts?

Categories Dressing does not have a way to distinguish whether categories are empty.

You could write a test to hide empty categories if you have category counts turned on.
