What I'm trying to accomplish is that the content module 'opens' the subcategory I'm clicking on to show me the 'sub-sub-categories'... Right now I can see all Main-categories and their respective subcategories, but when I click on one of those subcategories to open it, the content module does not show the available subcategories inside it. So, I want to get to the third level... ![:)](/media/kunena/emoticons/3.png ":)") Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzQtaG93LXRvLzM1NjExLW5lc3RlZC1zdWJjYXRlZ29yaWVzLWluLWNvbnRlbnQtbW9kdWxlP3RtcGw9bWFya2Rvd24=) or [Create an account](/register) to join the conversation. - **[nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile")** - [![nicolas's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/avatars/resized/size144/users/avatar63.png?1793428657)](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile") - [ Offline](/forum/user/63-nicolas) Less More - Posts: 86322 - Thank you received: 14281 - - 14 years 9 months ago [\#35699](#35699) by [nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile") Replied by *[nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile")* on topic *[Re: Nested subcategories in Content Module](/forum/4-how-to/35611-nested-subcategories-in-content-module#35699 "Hi, I've been looking at the examples on the demo-site and tried various settings, but I can't seem to figure out how to show nested subcategories in a Content Module.

For that, you would have to create one menu item of the type hikashop category listing per category and use a joomla menu accordion module to display the menu items.

Right now we use 55 categories (and counting) for which I'd have to create menu-items plus configuring Hikashop menus... Not to mention what it will take to reflect changes made in the category structure or adding new ones. I guess it would make a lot of people very happy if this ended up on Hika's ToDo list... ![:)](/media/kunena/emoticons/3.png ":)") It would make a great addition to Hikashop Essential and Business (at least).
