Catergories Enchanced with Dropdown Contrib Problem

[ghirsch]

I am using the Categories Enhanced with Dropdown Contrib on OSC 2.2 with a few other contribs mainly the random products contrib. I seem to be having a small issue with displaying the products in the main categories. What happens is when selecting the top level of a category it displays random products through out the site. When a subcategory is selected it displays just the items in that subcategory. I just cant seem to make it work at the top level. To view what I am trying to describe you can go here:

I see when you select 'Camera Accessories you get just the new product module, are there any products in that category? or are you wanting to display all products within sub-categories to that, or list the sub-categories, or both??

The issue seems to happen with any folder that has a subfolder. If there is a subfolder OSC will display New Products/Random Products from the entire website instead of listing just the products in that particular category.

There arent any products in the main category. I would like it to display the products within the subcategories or both would even be better.

The default index.php will only display products once the category selected has them, if you wish to display all products within all sub-categories, then you need to write some sql to find all child categories, then get all products within those, of course that is likely to be a big list, so perhaps a waste of time.
