Please help me display sub category thumbnails

Hi guys,

Could do with a hand on the start of my zencart website:

https://www.birminghamgoldmastersltd.co.uk

At the moment, when you click on the rings category on the side, it takes you through to the rings page, but does not display a thumbnail of the subcategory (a thumbnail of 18CT rings and platinum)

Ideally, what i would like to do is display a thumbnail of the sub category, similar to the navigation thumbnails on the homepage.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Thank you in advance!!

Re: Please help me display sub category thumbnails

admin > catalog > Categories / Products > find "ring" and then select/click the green spot with an "e"(edit) > towards the bottom you will see "Category Image:"

Re: Please help me display sub category thumbnails

Hi, thank you for your reply.

That wasnt exactly what i was looking for, what i need is that the sub category images are displayed as thumbnails when you click on the rings category.

E.g. when you click on rings in the left hand category panel,

a thumbnail of the 18CT ring and a thumbnail of the platinum category are shown.

any more help would be great.

thank you again

Re: Please help me display sub category thumbnails

first guy was right that's how you do it admin->categories->categories/products
select the sub-category you want to add the thumbnail for select edit
browse and image if you don't want the word to show up maybe you can also add the link manually as the name but i don't know if that will work

Re: Please help me display sub category thumbnails

Thanks very much both of you. The template that i was using for some reason was not showing the internal thumbnails which I had already added! I have changed back to the original template and I will go from there.

Once again thank you very much for your patience!!
