Like I said, I'm not a pro coder and took over an existing site trying to make it work... The main site is at http://www.henrycompany.com/ ... the Zen Cart part that opens in a frame of the former is https://vacpartsplusstore.com/catalog/index.php ... Thanx for any help...
I believe the top categories are "Antique", "New Machines", "Part" and "Used". as displayed on the shop bar. These are parsed from the Atrex POS system we use. The entire structure of our system, as far as it goes, is in disarray and straightening that out is a different ballgame, but the menu displays them, it just has another drop down popping up in ADDITION to the shop bar, above or inside it, not sure like I said. But it is the behavior of that particular drop down I am puzzled by as there is no "LOCK" or "MISC" written ANYWHERE in ANY of my site files, so I have no control of it. Thanx Again for any help.
OK so I went into my admin in zen cart, to snoop around. And in the Categories / Products Tab I found what I think is the problem. There was a "Linked Product" in the inventory. It was linked between "Janitorial" and "Misc" subcategories. so the last 2 folders in the sequence between those 2, are "Lock" and "Misc" which are the buttons showing up on my menu on my site. It must have something to do with linked products. It was only 1 product, so I deleted it from the linked folder which was "Misc" and left it in "Janitorial". In my admin the "Linked" status is gone, but in the Menu, I still have these 2 renegade buttons displaying. I left it up so you can look at it again, and maybe you can figure out my next step, unless I figure it out first.
Tried reloading the whole mod again just to see if changes I made had anything to do with it, but it did the same thing. Tried Renaming my Categories, adding categories, and moving things around and it seems like that "Part" folder in particular creates the same behavior no matter where I put it. It's like there is another linear menu of the sub categories from the "Parts" folder popping up when I hover over Shop on the main menu. When you slide down over the "Part" category link, the "Ghost" menu disappears. I am really confused on this, any suggestions or any help I can get I'd appreciate, and Thanx Again...
I figured it out.We have a MASSIVE amount of different parts that we sell. Some of these subcategories will be cleaned out, but will still leave us with a ton of them. I was splitting the parts into 2 folders in Zen admin, and when I had enough files transferred, the "Ghost" bar disappeared, moving off page to the left. So if someone has a huge un-sub_categorized list like we do, they may have same problems with this mod. I will solve it completely when I get into our Atrex system, but in the meantime, this is a GREAT looking and functioning mod and I personally thank you, it's everything I wanted.
