    V2.6 has been submitted, and until it is approved you can download it here.

    I have also made a screenshot showing the features as applied to the ZC demo products.

    If you don't anticipate a need to move category groups around or style them differently from each other, you can stick with v2.5.
    The id that allows the individual control is the only real difference.

    Categories Dressing v2.6 is now available in Free Addons.

    I will be interested to see what people do on real websites with the new styling possibilities built in to it. If you have any questions about achieving a particular look, please ask.

    Just for fun, here is an example of putting two "extra" categories boxes at the top of the center column, achieved with only this CSS:
    Code:
    #navColumnOneWrapper {position: relative;}
    
    .centerColumn {margin-top: 37em;}
    
    ul#catGroup3 {
        border: 1px solid #bd6699;
        background: #bbeeff; 
        position: absolute;
        width:16em;
        height: 34em;
        left: 16em;
        top: 0.3em;
        }
    
    ul#catGroup48 {
        border: 1px solid #bd6699;
        background: #bbeeff; 
        position: absolute;
        width:16em;
        height: 34em;
        left: 35em;
        top: 0.3em;
        }

    These rules style the first level subcats:
    Code:
    #categories ul ul {/*subcategories*/
        list-style: none;
        background: #ffeecc;
        border: none;
        margin: 0 0 0.4em 0;
        padding: 0 0 0 1.3em;
        }
    	
    #categories ul ul a {/*subcategories*/
        display: list-item;
        list-style: circle inside url(../images/bullet1.gif);/*change to list-style: none; to remove bullet*/
        background: #ffddbb;
        border: none;
        margin: 0;
        padding: 0;
        }
    To style deeper subcats differently, duplicate as required and add another "ul" to the selector, like:

    #categories ul ul ul a {

    For a divider above a category, edit /includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/your_template/categories_dressing_defines.php, and add a define for that category (say it is cPath 23):
    PHP Code:
    define ('CAT_BOX_HEADING_23','0|1||');//divider only - style 1 
    All of your setup for this mod will be in this file, and in the stylesheet (plus creating any images required).
    Take the time to read through the readme.html included with the package.

    Ok, that's what I was doing, just the divider code, but it never shows up. Maybe its my template (Pretty In Pink)?
    Maybe I can rework a few things and not even need it.

    Thanks!

    Is it possible ..with or without this... for Sub cats to close when another opens?

    For example :

    I have Top Cats :
    By Genre
    By Author


    Under Genre there is a long list and under Author there is A-Z......

    If someone has the Genre open and they decide to click on Author, I hate for both subs lists to stay open, I would like for Genre to close and Author open...make sense?

    I have made up another example, with more real-world applicability: moving the "sale" categories in the demo install from the sidebox to the top of the center column.

    All of the modification from the stock Cat Dressing setup is as follows:

    categories_dressing_defines.php
    PHP Code:
    define ('CAT_BOX_HEADING_48','1|0||');//new list - no headings
    define ('CAT_BOX_HEADING_49','1|0||');//new list - no headings
    define ('CAT_BOX_HEADING_50','1|0||');//new list - no headings

    define ('CAT_BOX_HEADING_53','1|2||');//divider only - style 2 
    //^--(modified to start new group, so it doesn't fall under cat 50 group) 
    (and commenting out the original define for cat 48)

    stylesheet_categories_dressing.css
    Code:
    #navColumnOneWrapper {position: relative;}
    
    .centerColumn {margin-top: 11em;}
    
    ul#catGroup48 {
        border: 1px solid #bd6699;
    	border-width: 1px 0 1px 1px;
    	padding: 3px 0 0 2px;
        background: #bbeeff; 
        position: absolute;
        width: 142px;
        height: 9em;
        left: 157px;
        top: 0.3em;
    	}
    ul#catGroup49 {
        border: 1px solid #bd6699;
    	border-width: 1px 0;
    	padding: 3px 0 0 2px;
        background: #bbeeff; 
        position: absolute;
        width: 142px;
        height: 9em;
        left: 299px;
        top: 0.3em;
    	}
    ul#catGroup50 {
        border: 1px solid #bd6699;
    	border-width: 1px 1px 1px 0;
    	padding: 3px 0 0 2px;
        background: #bbeeff; 
        position: absolute;
        width: 142px;
        height: 9em;
        left: 441px;
        top: 0.3em;
    	}
