I am using the excellent wf-downloads module (version 3.1) and I have a question about category listings. I have 1 category - "projects" that has a sub-category called "bash", and "bash" has a sub-category called "alpha". I have a file listed for download in the alpha sub-category. However, on the main download page (the index), where it lists the categories - it shows the "projects" parent category as having 0 files listed. The files are there, the download works, it just shows the parent category as having 0 downloads available. Is this because it is listed 2 sub-categories down? Is there any way to make it show up? It's kind of confusing to visitors, because they go to the download section and see a folder labled as having zero downloads, so they think nothing is there. If worse comes to worse, I suppose I could just hack the template apart to not show any number at all, but I don't want to if I don't have to.

Thanks, and happy (belated) new year everyone

Actually it shouldnt be doing this as I have WF-Downloads 3.1 and have downloads listed in a sub-cat and they show up on the parent cat. Although, I dont have a sub-cat within a sub-cat tho.

You might wanna try the WF-Downloads support site athttp://www.smartfactory.ca/ . they might have answers.

I seem to recall from a couple of years ago (mayeb even three) that this was reported as a bug (by me I think) but I think it was fixed sometime after that before it was taken on by the Smart Factory. But perhaps it still raises it's head under certain circumstances? Have a look in the bug reports page if it goes back that far.

Thanks for the replies. I checked on the developers site but couldn't find anything about it in either the bug reports or the forums. I posted something there though, so i guess i'll just have to wait and see.

If this doesn't work, can anyone recommend a decent alternative?

Thanks again
