category menu item with category list?

Post by ericta »

Hi,

I'd like to set up a menu item show exact layout as
https://www.phoca.cz/demo/categories-view-in-category
how can I do that?
it seems I only have two options when creating a menu item
one is category list layout; and another is category layout. none of them can achieve what I described.
Did I miss anything?

Thank you
Eric

Hi, you can set it in parameters, this is a category view but you can create a menu link to categories view from which you will go to category view, see:

I tried both layout to create my menu link.

using Phoca Gallery All categories layout, the menu url leads user to a page shows category list only;
when use Phoca Gallery Category layout, the menu url leads user to an image index page without category list or navigation.

So the question remains, what should I do to set up a menu link shows a particular category image with category list or category navigation on top?

Thank you.
