Created a new category but no products show up. Sidebar disappears

I have just created a new category (several actually) but each time I put products or sub categories in the new category, nothing shows up when you look at the site.

You can see it says Home > What's New > Tutorials (the name of the new category) but there should be further categories in there. Also, the sidebar on the right is missing and is replaced with white space.

The products and the category and sub categories have their status set to active.

I added google remarketing code to my site during the week. Could this have caused something to error?

This is the category with no sidebar and isn't showing the sub categories.

This is how I added the code.

No... because on OTHER products I see the following at the end of the pagecode:

<!-- Google Code for Remarketing tag -->
<!-- Remarketing tags may not be associated with personally identifiable information or placed on pages related to sensitive categories. For instructions on adding this tag and more information on the above requirements, read the setup guide: google.com/ads/remarketingsetup -->
<script type="text/javascript">
/* <![CDATA[ */
var google_conversion_id = 1029596100;
var google_conversion_label = "iHx0CM7yxAQQxMf56gM";
var google_custom_params = window.google_tag_params;
var google_remarketing_only = true;
/* ]]> */
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="//www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion.js">
</script>
<noscript>
<div style="display:inline;">
<img height="1" width="1" style="border-style:none;" alt="" src="//googleads.g.doubleclick.net/pagead/viewthroughconversion/1029596100/?value=0&label=iHx0CM7yxAQQxMf56gM&guid=ON&script=0"/>
</div>
</noscript>

</body></html>

This indicates that the code has been correctly inserted into tpl_main_page.php

on your NEW CATEGORY (tutorials) the HTML is truncating at:

<!-- BOF: Display grid of available sub-categories, if any -->

Go look at the pagesource for this page.
