Thank you! Yes I know. The real problem is the title of the subcategories. If I chose a category-menu and select one mother-category or multiple subcategories the title is not visible. No matter template I use.

But when I chose a latest-article-menu and select one mother-category or multiple subcategories the title of each category is shown!

Here is an example with the same category-settings:

Page with category-menu: [url=http://]server45.cyon.ch/~ralphweb/index.php/test[/url]
Here I got only the mother-category-title "Partner Hauptkategorie"


Page with latest-article-menu: [url=http://]server45.cyon.ch/~ralphweb/index.php/partner[/url]
Here I got every subcategory-title: "Individualsponsor", Drittsponsor" etc.
But with this site the order is not what i want. because I can't manage order-settings. It shows always the latest article on top.

So my question is: How can I get visible subcategory-titles with a category-menu?

What is your setup in the parent-category under Category view options?

here you are! Thank you very much for your help!

You have set the Sub-categories not to show in your listing. Are not the ones you need to show? I'm confused.

No I don't want to have the subcategories shown on top in these boxes.

I want to get this view:

Title Parent-Category

Title Subcategory 1
- Article
- Article
- Article

Title Subcategory 2
- Article
- Article

Title Subcategory 3
- Article
- Article


Now I got something like this:

Title Parent-Category

- Article
- Article
- Article
- Article
- Article

etc.

Does no one have a solution for this issue?

I'm afraid that this layout can only be achieved with the Latest View menu type.
You could use the catalog mode and just navigate from a page with the parent and sub-categories blocks (no items) to each ones listing (items) after clicking on it.

Ok Thank you for checking this. At least I can be certain.

But is there a possibility to change the category_item.php in a way to get this view?

Or is it better to give the latest view menu type an other order? An order by sort?

Is it possible to integrate this feature/view in the next update?
I am not the only one who has this problem. In the german-forum for example are posts about the same topic.

Actually you can achieve this layout using several ways ( even with the K2 content module ).

Since you are using the latest item view you can pretty much change the ordering to what you want, independent of the category ordering.

All these options are located in the menu item's params.
