Yahoo SubCategory plugin problem?
I install the YahooSubCat plugin by (Mel), it installed sucessfully, but when I paste SUB1 in subcategory.html, and build the pages, it simply print the SUB1 under the categories

here is my Subcategory.html contents:

<table border=0 cellpadding=3 cellspacing=0><tr>
<td width=30 align=center valign=top>
<img src="/images/folder.gif" width="15" height="15" border=0></td>
<td>
<p class="category_links"><b><a href="<%URL%>"><%Short_Name%></a><small> <i>(<%Number_of_Links%>)</i></small>
<%if Has_New_Links eq 'Yes'%><font color="red"><small><sup><b>new</b></sup></small></font><%endif%>
<%if Has_Changed_Links eq 'Yes'%><font color="red"><small><sup><b>updated</b></sup></small></font><%endif%>
<br><%if Description%><font size="1">SUB1</font><%endif%>
</font>
</p>
</td></tr>
</table>

I also try to put it like <%SUB1%> and receive unknown tag error!

Please help me, how I can display yahoo style subcategories!

You need to put the SUB1 in the Description field for the category.

In the Subcategory template you need <%Description%> where you have put SUB1.

Hi

followed these instructions to the letter - but still no subcats showing up at all.

Used Leona's template (hope you dont mind - looks nice) - still not working.

Any ideas?

Regards

You need to put SUB1 or SUB0 into the DESCRIPTION field for the category -- each category.

The template would then be:

Code:

<table border=0 cellpadding=3 cellspacing=0><tr>
<td width=30 align=center valign=top>
<img src="/images/folder.gif" width="15" height="15" border=0></td>
<td>
<p class="category_links"><b><a href="<%URL%>"><%Short_Name%></a><small> <i>(<%Number_of_Links%>)</i></small>
<%if Has_New_Links eq 'Yes'%><font color="red"><small><sup><b>new</b></sup></small></font><%endif%>
<%if Has_Changed_Links eq 'Yes'%><font color="red"><small><sup><b>updated</b></sup></small></font><%endif%>
<br><%if Description%><font size="1"><%Description%></font><%endif%>
</font>
</p>
</td></tr>
</table>
