home page category links

v1.3.9h

On my home page, the side box has a list of all my categories and subcategories. After my opening text, the same categories are listed as links. How can I remove these? See attached photo.

Re: home page category links

If I understand the question, check Admin - Configuration - Product Listing - Show SubCategories on Main Page while navigating

Re: home page category links

Hi Folks

I tried this just now and it hasn't worked for me. Any ideas why this could be?

Cheers

Re: home page category links

Where did your template come from? Does it work if you switch to the Classic template?
Seeing it live may help us diagnose this.

Re: home page category links

Hi

Thanks for your response.

I'm currently working on changing template from the Cherry Zen template to the Black Pure Template, both of these templates were downloaded from the free template resource linked to from the Zen Cart main site.

I don't know if it works in classic but it doesn't work in either of the Cherry or Black templates mentioned above.

They are currently displayed overlapping the main nav buttons here which is why I was looking into turning them off.

Cheers

Matt

Re: home page category links

That's a completely different problem. What you want is to turn off the categories-tabs menu in Configuration > Layout Settings.

Re: home page category links

Thanks very much! That has sorted it.

The way I read the above, made me think it was the same thing. Even though I couldn't really see enough detail in the picture to be 100% sure.

Just another quick one - is it easy enough to change their position if I decide I want them back?

Thanks for your help.

Re: home page category links

It should just be a matter of some CSS styling.
