Categories Dressing

[limelites]

Limelites -

Those two subcategories have subcats, not products directly, so the question is why your code is trying to use the product listing page instead of the subcategory listing page. The specials (What's Hot This July) centerbox is already displaying random products from the sub-subcats.

Hi Glen,

I don't know what happened to it, but it didn't used to show like this. It used to show all products from the sub categories in a random order (20 per page) and acted exactly like the other main categories which have no sub-cats just products.

I know the 'what's hot this July' shows random products from the sub-cats but how would I get it to show all products from the sub categories in a random order (20 per page) and act as though there were no sub cats?

Product categories in the product listing do not show randomly, unless you have some mod operating. Likewise, categories with subcats never show product listing pages unless something custom has been done to the code.
I find it hard to imagine any way the categories sidebox could be affecting the page display logic, unless you have added code to modify the category links. Cat Dressing does not touch the link destination code at all, just wraps them for sidebox display.

Hi Glen,

That's why I started by saying I'm a little off topic. I know I had some modifications to the code working previously, but for the life of me I can't remember how I did it. I've searched and searched my previous messages looking for the modifications but can't find them. Was just posting in here in case you're able to point me to the files that could have worked such magic previously?

It's also doing it in Womenswear, Menswear and Childrenswear. I've not changed anything on the site in ages, so I have no clue why it's started doing this. It used to show all the products at random from the sub categories, now it's started acting weird for no reason. Any idea what file I might have modified initially?

Did post 828 get resolved? where the indent was not aligning with the bullets word?

I am having that issue as well, where my categorie takes up two lines and the 2nd line is not indented like the first line.

I have another problem. I sure this has already been solved, I couldn't find it searching.

I put in a new sub category, when I get to the category it basically acts like its a top level category, it starts the bread crumb over again, and the categories all fold up on the left.

Thank You in advance for your help!

So I fixed my adding categories problem. I added it straight into a subcategory, which then followed the bread crumb.

Before I had added it as a top category then moved it to a subcategory and thats why it wasn't acting like a sub.

Been searching through the post and can't seem to find a solution to this issue. In Firefox, the categories show up fine, but in IE, the categories and subcategories aren't visible until I hover over them, and sometimes not visible until I actually click on them. You can see my test site here:

Please let me know if anyone has any suggestions as how to fix this

Never mind - I just went back to original category layout - have to launch cart right away

Is there a way to remove the bullet for the 2nd level category, but not the 3rd level?
