Changing category tree view

[Gomlers]

In 1.6:

 

If you check the to leftcolumn on this page:

http://demo-store.prestashop.com/en/8-dresses

you find the category-tree listing up the 3 subcategories within "Dresses" category.

 

When you click on e.g. Casual Dresses:

http://demo-store.prestashop.com/en/9-casual-dresses

the category tree is gone.

 

How can I get the category tree to be visible for the subcatgories within the "main" category you are viewing?

 

And also - how can I have the main category:

http://demo-store.prestashop.com/en/3-women

to be extended all the time, so my customer doesn't have to press the + on the right side for each category?

this module displays subcategories of currently viewed category, if there is no subcategories - block just doesn't appear.

what to do?

if i were you i will try to install module from 1.5 release

Thank you - however, I would rather change the code in the 1.6 category module to get this to work

 

But this is exactly what I want:

 

I have 5 top categories, each containing about 10 subcategories.

Each of these 10 subcatories have about 5 sub-sub-categories.

 

So when you click on top category 1, I would like to show all the subcategories AND the sub-sub categories for THAT main category.

 

When you click on another main category, I would like to show the subcategories and the sub-sub categories for that category and so on...

 

Possible?

as far as i know default block categories module works like that.

 

category tree looks like:

HOME > WOMEN > TOPS

HOME > WOMEN > DRESSES

 

when i browse WOMEN category i see:
'

 

it displays subcategories of "WOMEN" category, so it works like you described above

 

or i missed something?

The problem is that when you click the last subcategory - e.g. "Casual Dresses" from your above image - the category tree is hidden.

I would like it to show
