Hi vieriuflavius

I have created a new menu item type products with the ID of the category and it shows the category correctly

I have understood correctly ? or you need a different type of menu ?

Try picking when you build the menu Shop/category and then enter id 13. It oftens returns static page as to js it is static. It is one category.

May help!l

It doesn’t… I’ve tried everything but it still doesn’t display correctly… It is working if I pick external link… but that doesn’t fix the problem.

> I can’t even pick Shop… It is automatically changed to product…

I just tried on my test system and it works. Here is the view. Ignore that the menu is called product list – it shows a category.

I picked Products, the Category and entered the Cat ID number and here what shows after saving. In the front end the menu links directly with that category not all products.

Someone else was having a similar problem in that it always went to all products and he solved it here.

It seems there must be one menu item that points to all products. Once you have that you can add what you want to other menus.

Only other thing I can think of is to manually enter the link on the menu – menu type is still product etc so not as an external url but into the link section under ‘Details’

should look like this

index.php?option=com_jshopping&controller=category&task=view&category_id=13&manufacturer_id=&label_id=&vendor_id=&page=

where category_id is the one you are given in Jshopping backend under categories. It is not a Joomla ID number.
