Categories tabs 2.0

[sarah1980]

Hi there,

 

I have just installed this contributon but don't think I placed the code in the correct place in my header.php code, as there is no sign of any tabs when I go to my catalog page! I have copied and pasted my header.php code below with the categories tab directly below the header code (I think) and would appreciate if anyone could provide some direction as to the correct place to put the categories tab code:

I managed to get some help for displaying the category tabs correctly.

 

My next question is:

 

Because I have so many categories, the tabs currently go right across the page and you have to scroll way over to the right to get to the end of the category tabs. Is there a way to make the first 6 categories appear on one row and the second 6 categories appear in a second row underneath the first?
