Please make sure that your module is set to be displayed in that position of your template and that it is published. Also, you can compare its hikashop options with the hikashop options of the module on our demo website: [ www.demo.hikashop.com/administrator/inde...odules&task=edit&cid](http://www.demo.hikashop.com/administrator/index.php?option=com_hikashop&ctrl=modules&task=edit&cid)[]=55 The following user(s) said Thank You: [bigpete](/forum/user/6450-bigpete "View bigpete's Profile") Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzQtaG93LXRvLzQyOTMwLXNpZGUtbWVudS1pc3N1ZT90bXBsPW1hcmtkb3du) or [Create an account](/register) to join the conversation. - **[bigpete](/forum/user/6450-bigpete "View bigpete's Profile")** - [![bigpete's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/avatars/resized/size144/users/avatar6450.jpg)](/forum/user/6450-bigpete "View bigpete's Profile") Topic Author - [ Offline](/forum/user/6450-bigpete) Less More - Posts: 8 - Thank you received: 0 - - 14 years 7 months ago - 14 years 7 months ago [\#43066](#43066) by [bigpete](/forum/user/6450-bigpete "View bigpete's Profile") Replied by *[bigpete](/forum/user/6450-bigpete "View bigpete's Profile")* on topic *[Re: Side Menu Issue](/forum/4-how-to/42930-side-menu-issue#43066 "Hello, So far I am really enjoying the HikaShop environment but I have some confusion.

Thanks to you and the that website I have fixed the main menu item, improved my slider, added a pair of great components and modules. I also have the "CATEGORIES OF PRODUCTS" prominently displayed where I want it. For now the category items show ( javascript:void(0) ). but I will continue to work on it till I get it. I added module , "CATEGORIES OF PRODUCTS" (mine is called "Our Fish" to mimic the main menu item. I also added content menu item "Category listing module", because I noticed it you "CATEGORIES OF PRODUCTS". The menu appears on every page but when you click on the individual category I get javascript:void(0). I will continue to work on this.

I followed the tutorial instructions for module of product and added it with the one from your demo site and the new one worked so I deleted the original one. The rest is easy formatting issues on my end.
