K2 data group for sub(sub) categories was created by PieterBum
Hey all,
I'm guessing I won't find the answer here, but I'll try it anyway:
I'm editing a website, and this site uses data-groups, of which I'm not familiar (enough) with.
Example:
*category = groceries
*subcategory = drinks
*subsub(?)category = soda
(Sorry, since the site thinks I post spam, I need to put my question in an image here)
<img>i.ibb.co/t3XPX0H/help001.png
____
On the page, there's a button which displays "Drinks". When clicked, all the items in this category appears.
I can find the subcategory back in K2/categories, (Groceries > Drinks).
However, I now need to make a dropdown with more sub(sub)categories. So in K2/categories, I make one called "Soda". But no matter what I do, a button with <li class="active" data-group="Soda"> does not work.
How do I get this to work?

so if I want to place a subsubcategory under the subcategory, I would place
<ul><strong>Tools</strong>
<li class="force-css" data-group="Soda"><a href="#">Block 1</a></li>
but that doesn't do anything. What am I supposed to type there? Nothing seems to work...
In other words, how do you make a subsubcategory, and what do I type in its data-group tag?
Do I need to add php or js somewhere to make it work?

If you refer to category.php and how it displays categories and their children, the relationship is always parent-children, in 2 levels only. When you'd click a subcategory, if it has children, they would show up as well. But you can't currently have 3 levels of categories in first view of a category.
