New Products Module not show all products

Hi!
My store has 4 categories and many sub-categories which sub-categories has other sub-categories.
Example:
Category1 ->Sub-Category1 -> Sub-Category 1.1 -> Sub-Category 1.1.1

The problem is that when I select "Category 1" there are Sub-categories and in last sub-category "Sub-Category 1.1.1" there are products. But they not shown in New Products Module in Sub-Category1 and only shown in Sub-Category 1.1 New Products Module.
Can I make all products in one main category to shown in New Products Module when select main category ex. "Category 1".

Re: New Products Module not show all products

Do you have products in Category 1, sub category 1 or sub category 1.1?

Re: New Products Module not show all products

It's a bit over-simplified, but basically some of the Zen Cart searches work their way down your category tree until they find products. They treat this as the end of the branch (i.e. ignore any further subcategories) and go looking for the next branch. That's why you're not supposed to mix products and sub-categories at the same level in a category or sub-category.

That means that there is no way to solve this problem?

Correcting your product and category structure would be a start.
