A seperate sidebox box for each top category and its children?

I have a website selling office furniture, and I am in the process of changing my categories sidebox. I would like to seperate the categories sideboxes for:

  1. Business Office Furniture
  2. Home Office Furniture

These 2 categories are my top level categories and I want them to be text only so the user can only click on the subcategories.

I also therefore need the 2nd level categories to always be displayed.

My site is Rinato Office Furniture

So basically the result I need is for the following to always be displayed in the categories sidebox:

BUSINESS OFFICE FURNITURE (text only)
By Workspace
By User
By Furniture Type
By Range

HOME OFFICE FURNITURE (text only)
By Type
By Range

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated !! :yes:

You can do this with Categories Dressing. See the support thread for more info, and help with details of implementation.

That "Products" is labeled as h1#indexDefaultHeading, which means that it is the main title defined in /includes/languages/english/index.php, by default

Line #51 : define('HEADING_TITLE', 'Congratulations! You have successfully installed your Zen Cart™ E-Commerce Solution.');

Set it as you want in /includes/languages/english/your_template/index.php

Re: A seperate sidebox box for each top category and its children?

thanks for the help. I actually already had: define('HEADING_TITLE', ''); in that file. But using the indexDefaultHeading I managed to trace it to the tpl_index_default.php file.

I just removed the line: ```

<h1 id="indexDefaultHeading"><?php echo HEADING_TITLE; ?></h1> ``` and it's now fine :clap:
