I'm trying to get it to work in the following way, (using "homeware" as an example). Action 1: Top menu item is "homeware". If you click on "homeware" it takes you to a page where you have "plates", "cups" & "bowls". Clicking on one of these takes you to the relevent section. For example you click on "plates" and it takes you to a page showing the different types of plates available, eg, wood, plastic, metal, china. Clicking on one of these gives you a list of products available. Action 2: Top menu item is "homeware". When you put your mouse over the top of "homeware" you get a list of categories eg; "plates", "cups", "bowls". Clicking on one of these takes you to the relevent section. For example you click on "plates" and it takes you to a page showing the different types of plates available, eg, wood, plastic, metal, china. Clicking on one of these gives you a list of products available. I have managed to get part of this working, but not properly. I get the list of categories, but when I click on one of them, for example, "plates" it loads a page showing the categories "plates", "cups", "bowls". This actually happens no matter what category I click on, you get the same response. I'm certain it's down to how I'm setting it up, so some advice on where I'm going wrong would be great.

Many thanks, Wulfstan")* You need to go in the hikashop options of your menu and set the "parent category" of the plates menu to the category "plates". That way, when you click on it, the system will display the sub categories of the plates category.
