Just until the 2nd level deep. I dont understand fully why? On the backend I see a nice category tree. It would be great if I can that use on the frontend. Is there any way to do that??

It would be great yes. But as you know Rome wasn't built in one day. We have feature requests everyday. That one isn't easy to add and isn't asked much. So it's still waiting for the future. You can do it by create one menu per category and using one of the multi levels joomla menu module available on the JED OR by using that integration which handles HikaShop categories with any number of levels: [ www.joomlack.fr/en/Joomla-extensions/Men...ximenu-hikashop.html](http://www.joomlack.fr/en/Joomla-extensions/Menu/patch-maximenu-hikashop.html) Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzItZ2VuZXJhbC10YWxrLWFib3V0LWhpa2FzaG9wLzQ5NTg5LWZyb250ZW5kLWZ1bGwtY2F0ZWdvcnktdHJlZS1hcy1iYWNrZW5kP3RtcGw9bWFya2Rvd24=) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[sharq](/forum/user/6679-sharq "View sharq's Profile")** - [![sharq's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](/forum/user/6679-sharq "View sharq's Profile") Topic Author - [ Offline](/forum/user/6679-sharq) Less More - Posts: 20 - Thank you received: 0 - - 14 years 5 months ago - 14 years 5 months ago [\#49688](#49688) by [sharq](/forum/user/6679-sharq "View sharq's Profile") Replied by *[sharq](/forum/user/6679-sharq "View sharq's Profile")* on topic *[Re: Frontend Full Category Tree as Backend](/forum/2-general-talk-about-hikashop/49589-frontend-full-category-tree-as-backend#49688 "I found a topic, where you write there is'nt possible to show a full category tree.

I was thinking of integrating the dTree directly in the HikaShop content module so that you can really configure it the way you want. That's what doesn't take 1-2 hours. As you say, including the dTree view in a module isn't complex if you're a developer but remember that most of our users aren't. That's why I didn't want to explain all that. Thanks for sharing the module! I'm sure that some other users of HikaShop will be happy to use it.
