3 catergories in different sideboxes - Help

Hi
anyone that can help and put me out of my misery. I have 3 catergoies and would like them to display in there own sidebox. I can display 3 different catergory sideboxes but they all display all catertories not a different catergory per sidebox. what I have done so far is copied the catergory.php x 3 named them what the catergory is in includes\modules\sideboxes. Then went to includes\templates\template_default\sideboxes and made 3 tpl_catergories.php are named them.

But I don't know the code to place in each tpl_catergories.php. for it to call up that catergory for that sidebox. Does anybody have an idea I just can't work it out.
happy to hear any suggestion :frusty:

OK, I didn't know if you had the three boxes operational or not. That part was worked out by enchantedlingerie in the thread you referred to; I did the category discrimination work, so can probably help you.

To begin with, can we see the current state of your site? It's hard to coach when you don't know where the coachee is starting from.
And let's go to the original thread to make referrring to code easier: Parent Categories Separated In 3 sideboxes

Thank you so much you have no idea, how this will help. Have a look see what you think, if you need the passwords I don't mind i'm just happy for someone to help. http://www.divalicious.com.au/shop2/ The reason it's called shop two because there is a live site running on /shop. Also you will see what I have done so far I would like the headings a link to call the top cat, then list the subs under heading of the top cat make sense. :clap:
