Hey everyone !

When I set a category to Catalog, only the categories within it are displayed. But what I want to do is:
Example:
category 1 / subcategory 11 / item A
category 1 / subcategory 11 / item B

My menu is pointing to category 1. The view displays subcategory 11 and items A and B.

But, I want to display ONLY item A. I want to see item A and B when the user hits subcategory 11 only.

I am searching for a way to handle this but could not until now. Would apreciate any help.

Tks
Herbert

@Herbert

You may need considering changing your logic a little.... A K2 item belongs to only one category. A K2 category can have one or more subcategories. Maybe you should create another category and move the one item there.

Tks Lefteris, but I believe I did not explained well. I will try in other words.

I created five levels of categories. They all have items included.

Then I created one single menu pointing to the top parent category, which was set to Catalog Mode ON, on category settins. On the menu selecion, I selected only this parent category.

Then, when I hit the menu, only the children categories directed linked to the top parent category, which seems to be ok, since this top parent category is set to catalog mode = Yes.

Now, when I hit the view more button, I go to a view where I see the subcategories but bellow I see all items, even if this subcategory is set to catalog mode = yes.

This is the problem I am facing. I would like to be able to control, at item level, I mean, I would like to force an single item to appear on his subcategory only, not all subcategories that are above.

I expect I made myself more clear now.

Tks a lot !

K2 rocks !

You cannot a control the appearence of a single item. The settings are applied per category. For the case that you hit the subcategory but the settings are inherited by the parent one, then you may need to create a menu link to the subcategory also.
