Hi...

May be a silly question but can you have custom Categories ie.

Home and Travel as an example and would the code be written as below or something similar..?

var $iCategoryId=421;
var $iCategoryId=328;

My problem being a large category like 421 (Home & Garden) contains some listings that I don't need, so needs some editing !

Thanks for any help !

Hi,

We have identified a three tier category tree which is in play:

Parent : eg Home & Garden
Child : eg DIY
Grandchild : eg Hand Tools

If you find that a parent category may have too many products (including irrelevant to your requirement), I would recommend looking at the next lower level category, which will provide you with a more defined dataset.

You can then call only the categories you require, through the integration of parameters identified within your code.

I hope this helps :)
