How to align text in side category box. Hard to read them.

[gjh42]

Not within admin settings, but it would be a relatively simple coding addition in top_categories.php to add a class that indicates the subcat level and then style a background bullet accordingly.

This is described in the Changing color of Categories and Sub-Categories thread, post 20 ("simpler" version).

Once you have the classes as shown there, you would add to the stylesheet

a.category-subs1, a.category-products1 {
color: #7733ff;/*if you want the text a different color*/
padding-left: 1.5em;/*adjust to taste*/
background: url(../images/yourbullet2.gif) center left;
}

a.category-subs2, a.category-products2 {
color: #336699;/*if you want the text a different color*/
padding-left: 1.5em;/*adjust to taste*/
background: url(../images/yourbullet1.gif) center left;
}
