With the content menus the output is nice and straightforward if using menu items to select. Whatever you set in each menu item is output as expected. If however you navigate via the category images (content modules) it would seem that the top level category affects all sub category output? Not a problem if this is supposed to be the case, but as I'm new to the product I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong? The option to "Synchronize with currently displayed item when possible" I would have guessed would set the module output the same as the selected menu output? When is "when possible"? and is this in fact what this option does, as it seems to make no difference? Also I can't remove the associated category? I'm sure there is some documentation on this somewhere, but what I have found so far doesn't really explain things in a way I can understand.")

I have an issue where my product categories all have a border applied which is what I want, this seems to take it's style from the menu item I created. However when you drill down through the categories and the page of products is displayed there is no border. Also it is displaying the discount amount, which I have set to no in the default product display settings (discount does not show when the link is followed to an individual product, but on the page with all products displayed for the category it does). As an update to this I have borders now but not sure how. I am not understanding the content menu operation at all, but this would seem to control the output on the pages. The problem now is I have created a new content menu item pointing at one of my top level categories and another that is a sub category. The top level menu item seems to control all sub menu output, i.e if I change the number of columns in that menu it works, if I change the number of columns in the sub category menu it makes no difference. Next issue is that when trying to add to the Joomla menu structure I can't save it as I get a message "Save failed with the following error: MenusTableMenu: :move Failed - Cannot move the node to be a child of itself" I assume I am building the menu/category structure incorrectly somehow, but have no idea where I'm going wrong. To summarize I have created a menu module called "Shop Menu" I have created a content menu for the first category under "Product Categories" called "telephone systems" that is assign to a category of the same name. I have created a content menu called "Panasonic Telephone Systems" and assigned that to a category of the same name that is a sub category of "telephone Systems" Altering the settings of the menu for "telephone systems" affects both the output of that category and of sub categories. I cannot find anything except under the config display options for altering the output of a product listing layout, but somehow this has miraculously altered itself, clearing up the initial issues I was having, but leaving me with no way of further configuring this output. I am completely confused. I have no problem with deleting everything and starting from scratch if that would help with sorting this out. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. OK - got the menu saving issue sorted by creating in Joomla and then setting up Hikashop proprties. This has now resolved my issues with layout etc. but leaves 1 small issue. When following the links in the menu everything displays as I have set it in the content menu settings. However if I click on a link in the main page e.g. i click on the image of the category/subcategories and follow those links then I am back to my original problem. For example I have a product listing menu item that I have set up with 4 columns 6 items (just to test pagination) If I follow this from the shop menu it works perfectly. However if I click on the link in the main content area it displays 4 columns 8 items. Also from the menu the categories do no display empty sub categories, but if I follow the link in the main content area it displays all sub categories. OK - Pages display as I want via menu links URL when using menu /index.php/telephone-systems/panasonic-systems URL when using image links /index.php/telephone-systems/category/14-panasonic-telephone-systems Can anyone help me achieve the same output irrespective of which link they use?")

I have an issue where my product categories all have a border applied which is what I want, this seems to take it's style from the menu item I created. However when you drill down through the categories and the page of products is displayed there is no border. Also it is displaying the discount amount, which I have set to no in the default product display settings (discount does not show when the link is followed to an individual product, but on the page with all products displayed for the category it does). As an update to this I have borders now but not sure how. I am not understanding the content menu operation at all, but this would seem to control the output on the pages. The problem now is I have created a new content menu item pointing at one of my top level categories and another that is a sub category. The top level menu item seems to control all sub menu output, i.e if I change the number of columns in that menu it works, if I change the number of columns in the sub category menu it makes no difference. Next issue is that when trying to add to the Joomla menu structure I can't save it as I get a message "Save failed with the following error: MenusTableMenu: :move Failed - Cannot move the node to be a child of itself" I assume I am building the menu/category structure incorrectly somehow, but have no idea where I'm going wrong. To summarize I have created a menu module called "Shop Menu" I have created a content menu for the first category under "Product Categories" called "telephone systems" that is assign to a category of the same name. I have created a content menu called "Panasonic Telephone Systems" and assigned that to a category of the same name that is a sub category of "telephone Systems" Altering the settings of the menu for "telephone systems" affects both the output of that category and of sub categories. I cannot find anything except under the config display options for altering the output of a product listing layout, but somehow this has miraculously altered itself, clearing up the initial issues I was having, but leaving me with no way of further configuring this output. I am completely confused. I have no problem with deleting everything and starting from scratch if that would help with sorting this out. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. OK - got the menu saving issue sorted by creating in Joomla and then setting up Hikashop proprties. This has now resolved my issues with layout etc. but leaves 1 small issue. When following the links in the menu everything displays as I have set it in the content menu settings. However if I click on a link in the main page e.g. i click on the image of the category/subcategories and follow those links then I am back to my original problem. For example I have a product listing menu item that I have set up with 4 columns 6 items (just to test pagination) If I follow this from the shop menu it works perfectly. However if I click on the link in the main content area it displays 4 columns 8 items. Also from the menu the categories do no display empty sub categories, but if I follow the link in the main content area it displays all sub categories. OK - Pages display as I want via menu links URL when using menu /index.php/telephone-systems/panasonic-systems URL when using image links /index.php/telephone-systems/category/14-panasonic-telephone-systems Can anyone help me achieve the same output irrespective of which link they use?")
