spidawebs Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 I think you are getting too confused. Lets start again step by step: Say you want "Dog Clothes" as a main menu item. Go to your categories and find the category ID for Dog Clothes Then go to modules and find the menu module. Add a new menu item with the plus button and enter the category ID for Dog Clothes Select Category Tree and all the subcategories of Dog Clothes will appear below it on the menu Repeat this step for every main category you want on the menu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havouza Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 I told you to forget that categories block. Disable it. Open the Community Top Menu module Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spidawebs Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Yes, you are looking in the wrong place. The categories block has nothing to do with the top menu. The top menu is a completely separate module and is where you choose which categories make up your menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havouza Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 for each main category you have to make one category tree. The Entity ID is the ID of the main category you see in the Catalog/Category page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havouza Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 I dont know but I think if you dont fill in any name it will use the main category name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alwayspaws Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Just entered number 65 in the entity and saved it and nothing got filled in. I refreshed the web page and there's no change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spidawebs Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 You just need to enter: Item Type : Category Tree Entity ID : The ID of the Parent Category (The ID of Grooming in this case) Name : The name of the Parent Category (Grooming) I don't think you entered a name which is why it was blank.
