Please note that once the vendor category is created, the category won't move (except if you edit it). After that, I'm sorry but I don't understand what your screenshots mean. With just these elements ; it's not possible to understand anything of what is right, wrong, should be, etc. Regards, --- Jerome - Obsidev.com HikaMarket & HikaSerial developer / HikaShop core dev team.
