Product custom fields will be displayed as specifications on the product page.

Here is what I did: [ www.vmrdesigns.com.au/test/SRL\_design3/index.php/shop-here](http://www.vmrdesigns.com.au/test/SRL_design3/index.php/shop-here) On this page I have a category info module carousel displayed at the top of the page rotating through the four main categories. (cat info mod 344) I also have the product category menu displayed in an accordion style menu to the left. (cat info module 164) The items displayed in the main area are cat info menu 387. The side menu links correctly and displays the categories and products how I want them but the carousel menu seems to be linking to something else. The essential oils category image in the carousel is linking to the botanicals sub-category listing for some reason. I have tried to associate the carousel with the folloowing menus: Hikashop default menu category listing, Menu item for category listing module 164, and the "Shop here" menu item but nothing seems to work. Every image is linking to the incorrect category listing. Can you please explain how this works because I can't figure it out. thanks - [ ![content_mod_344.JPG](/forum/attachment/10882) ](/forum/attachment/10882 "...nt_mod_344.JPG") [ ](/forum/attachment/10882?download=1 "...nt_mod_344.JPG") Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzItZ2VuZXJhbC10YWxrLWFib3V0LWhpa2FzaG9wLzg0MzM4LWhvdy10by1jcmVhdGUtdGFicy1pbi1wcm9kdWN0LXBhZ2U/dG1wbD1tYXJrZG93bg==) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[Xavier](/forum/user/4105-xavier "View Xavier's Profile")** - [![Xavier's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/avatars/resized/size144/users/avatar4105.png)](/forum/user/4105-xavier "View Xavier's Profile") - [ Offline](/forum/user/4105-xavier) Less More - Posts: 13201 - Thank you received: 2322 - - - - [](http://www.kidiweb.fr) - 13 years 3 months ago [\#111725](#111725) by [Xavier](/forum/user/4105-xavier "View Xavier's Profile") Replied by *[Xavier](/forum/user/4105-xavier "View Xavier's Profile")* on topic *[Can't configure sub-cat and product pages to displ](/forum/2-general-talk-about-hikashop/84338-how-to-create-tabs-in-product-page#111725 "Hi, I have rpoducts configured with a tabular view and I can see that anything I put in the product description in the backend appears in the front end with a tab titled "description" which is great.

Another solution could be to use the "show_default" layout and the plugin "tabs" : [ extensions.joomla.org/extensions/news-di.../articles-tabs/14493](http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/news-display/article-elements/articles-tabs/14493) Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzItZ2VuZXJhbC10YWxrLWFib3V0LWhpa2FzaG9wLzg0MzM4LWhvdy10by1jcmVhdGUtdGFicy1pbi1wcm9kdWN0LXBhZ2U/dG1wbD1tYXJrZG93bg==) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[vmrayner](/forum/user/12065-vmrayner "View vmrayner's Profile")** - [![vmrayner's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](/forum/user/12065-vmrayner "View vmrayner's Profile") Topic Author - [ Offline](/forum/user/12065-vmrayner) Less More - Posts: 38 - Thank you received: 0 - - 13 years 3 months ago [\#111826](#111826) by [vmrayner](/forum/user/12065-vmrayner "View vmrayner's Profile") Replied by *[vmrayner](/forum/user/12065-vmrayner "View vmrayner's Profile")* on topic *[Can't configure sub-cat and product pages to displ](/forum/2-general-talk-about-hikashop/84338-how-to-create-tabs-in-product-page#111826 "Hi, I have rpoducts configured with a tabular view and I can see that anything I put in the product description in the backend appears in the front end with a tab titled "description" which is great.

Not sure how that happened but I will post it elsewhere.
