Comstock Template

[webbydeb]

My menu categories are not showing at the top, despite my having enabled the category tabs in admin - config- layout.

Is there a special thing I need to do with comstock to have them show?

From the readme_comstock_template.txt file

STYLESHEET SETTINGS:

The top horizontal category navigation, and the footer IP address are set to display none by default.
To use comment out this declaration:

#navCatTabsWrapper {
display: none;
}
#siteinfoIP {
display: none;
}

and un-comment the following declarations:

/* #navCatTabsWrapper {
margin: 0 auto;
   background: url(../images/navbar.gif) repeat-x;
	font-weight: bold;
	color: #ffffff;
	}*/

Thanks so much!

Nope, didn't work. Any other ideas?

Those settings in the stylesheet are the only thing that keeps them from showing - that is unless you have turned it off in admin

admin -> configuration -> layout settings -> Categories-Tabs Menu ON/OFF

or open includes/templates/comstock/common/tpl_header.php

find the following section and make sure it isn't commented out

<!--bof-optional categories tabs navigation display-->
<?php require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_modules_categories_tabs.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'templates'). '/tpl_modules_categories_tabs.php'); ?>
<!--eof-optional categories tabs navigation display-->

Nope, everything is fine in that file. Oh well. I like this template too much to care if I can't have it. The side menu will have to do.

Can you post this section of code from your copy of tpl_header.php
