The option "link on main categories" is turned off and you don't have sub categories like we have on our demo website. So your module is displaying a listing of categories which are not clickable with sub categories not displayed as you don't have any. Thus, it's not doing anything.
Turn that option on and it should work better ![:)](/media/kunena/emoticons/3.png ":)")

Brilliant!! :laugh:

Works now! How do I now set the products to display underneath the categories? I had originally tried the product display in a module tutorial but couldn't seem to get that to work

You mean inside the category listing on the left ? If so that's not possible. Otherwise, please give more information.

Yes, so that when you click on the category, it expands to show the products in that category.

So clicking on "Cricket bats" would then show the different products in that category.
