Hi

I am trying to create simple list of links to items in a category (no leading etc) - like can be done with joomla articles / category list - just a list of the items in a category, with the title as a link that would open the item

using the menu manager to create a k2 item - I see the option for 'Categories Displays a list of items from one or more categories. '

but this does not actually create a list - it creates wjhat joomla would call a 'Category Blog Displays article introductions in a single or multi-column layout.'!

I have several hundred items in the category, & want users to be able to just browse the items by title & click the title if they want to see the details

is there any way to creat a proper items list in the menu manager?

Hello,

You can edit the category's settings and only set the item's title to be visible.

I am struggling with this - when you say edit the category settings:

I went to components/K2/categories/parameters/layout & views

i am seeing

CSS & JavaScript Settings
Layout & view options for user (author) pages
Layout & view options for tag listings
Layout & view options for Search & Date listings

but nothing re category list settings?

where exactly do i set the category list to only show the title in list view?

Hello,

Select the category and edit its settings.
