Continue to Display Subcategories on child pages

Post by Loly19 » Fri Aug 15, 2008 3:17 am

Hello

Hoping for some help on something I haven't been able to work out.

If you look at this page.
http://216.139.232.83/Womens-C7.aspx
You'll see the subcategories listed on the left side.

I would like these same subcategories of the parent category Women's in this case to continue to be displayed on the product pages. Such as this one
http://216.139.232.83/Bullet-Bag-P51.aspx

And also on the actual sub-category pages themselves such as:
http://216.139.232.83/Sub-Cat-C15.aspx

Be nice also to highlight the current subcategory with a different color when they are on these pages but I can work that out later.

Is this possible at all and how difficult would it be? Basically just looking to carry over the subcategory list for the main categories onto all the child pages.

Thank you!
Lori

You just apply the same sidebar scriptlet as is being used by this pagehttp://216.139.232.83/Womens-C7.aspx to the left sidebars of the other two as well.

Yes it is applied on all the category pages

Let me try to explain better

If from Women's (http://216.139.232.83/Womens-C7.aspx) you select Sub-Cat2

I would still like
Sub-Cat
Sub-Cat2
displayed on the left.

Basically no matter where you are in the Women's section whether it be one of the subcategories or one of the products I would like that same subcategory list to display for the main parent category. I've been unable to do this without manually specifying the category in the SimpleCategoryList which obviously isn't an option since then it will display the Women's Subcategories no matter which Parent Category is selected.

Hope this explains what I am trying to do better. Thanks!
