Im having a different issue with this. I love the idea, however, if I manually create a side menu with the sub categories which is a pain, I can assign a template to the results and also use the K2 leading , primary, secondary settings.

With this, I get a generic category listing layout (which I would love to know how to make 1 column, and play with the leading , primary, secondary image sizes, etc...

is this possible. Is there a place where I can adjust the default K2 category leading items, primary items, etc... to say "if I dont specify anything, do this for my default layout options". Also, interestingly enough, if I place this menu on the main category, and the results come up displaying my sub-category results when someone clicks one of these links generated automatically, the menu is not displayed on those subcategory results to go to another person (subcategory). I am not given the option to place this menu on those auto generated menu items beforehand, since there is no hard menu item for it. It only shows on the one page I place it on originally. Not everything "under" that.

Additionally, when an automenu reaches a user configurable length (i.e. 20 items or 30 items or even 100) it could automatically be set to display the select box option instead so the categories can fit in a reasonable amount of space (since you are using people in your categories, what if you have 500 people?)

Hey Omar,
Thanks a lot for a great contribution! I'm looking for this kinda stuff quite some time... The automatic menu is a big time saver for editors and they don't have to hassle with menu's.
Cheers,
Guy
