Hi, Im using News 1.2.1. All okay, but I've a doubt... I have multiple topics/categories with multiple subcategories in my local xoops. Is there any way to make that a dinamic block to show all categories and subcategories automatically? Its possible? Help, please!!!

*** I have seen a block but only show main topics...

Regards

Thnx. My problem is not to edit block template manually. I have seen any comments in forum. What I cant get is to make it dynamically (based in news 1.2.1 topics block).

Thnx again.
Anyone?

Doesn't the "Navigate thru topics" block do that?

Yes that's a "valid" alternative: navigation box at the top of each news page? Its Okay but what Im searching is similar to news topics block. Problem is that this block only show main categories or topics. I need a left dynamically menu block show all topics or categories with subtopcis or subcategories! I cant get it with original block.

Thnx!

(Sorry for my english)

No, not the navigation box... there is a block called 'navigate thru topics' which shows all topics and subtopics, just like the navigation box does. The only difference is that the subtopics don't have '-' before them, but they are all there and in the right order too.

yeah, it doesn't work. There must be something to edit somewhere.

I've installed that 'navigate thru topics' block and when you display it, its only a list of the MAIN TOPICS and doesnt show the sub topics under each category. It lets you see the main ones and not the sub ones, they arent anywhere on the menu

You can see it on my site here:
