display sub-category list on sub-category page
hi,
this code below displays correctly sub-category list then i’m on a category page
<txp:if_section name='<txp:section />'>
<txp:if_category>
<txp:category_list wraptag="ul" break="li" section='<txp:section />' children="0" parent='<txp:category />' exclude='<txp:category />' sort="name asc" class="inline" />
</txp:if_category>
</txp:if_section>i need that same sub-category list to show up on a sub-category page as well (after clicking ‘york’), but can’t figure out how. can you help me?

Re: display sub-category list on sub-category page
Could smd_parent be of help here? It allows you to retrieve the parent of the current category which you can then plug into parent and exclude attributes of category_list. I can’t remember exactly what it does on the top-level category, but I’m guessing it returns the top-most category, which would mean it work on both category and sub-category pages.

Re: display sub-category list on sub-category page
tried this way also, but nothing changed:
<txp:if_section name='<txp:section />'>
<txp:if_category>
<txp:category_list wraptag="ul" break="li" section='<txp:section />' children="1" parent='<txp:category />' exclude='<txp:category />' sort="name asc" class="inline">
<txp:category title="1" link="1" section='<txp:section />' />
</txp:category_list>
</txp:if_category>
</txp:if_section>ok, i will try smd_parent
