I came across this and it is what i was looking for. How do i install it and how any categories can I show? Also, how do I install it with the hide categories mod? I want my home page to show categories not latest items, will this do it?

All the [vQmod] in this forum are installed by simply dropping an xml file in to a folder on your server.
You must have the vQmod extension installed on your server to use these vQmod files.
vQmod gives you an easy way to modify files without editing the core files and therefore enabling easy updates in OpenCart versions in the future.
Please see this topic on how to install vQmod first -> http://forum.opencart.com/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=24529

No neither this mod nor the 'hide empty categories' mod will display categories on your homepage instead of latest products.jcooke wrote: I want my home page to show categories not latest items, will this do it?
Not sure why but its not working for me. I didn't see anything in the vqmod.log I'm using 1.5.1.1
Possible reasons?

What paths do we have to change for a custom theme?
I only have category.tpl and special.tpl in my product folder of custom theme.

Lao, if your theme doesn't have the template files mentioned in the vqmod file, then leave those as default.
If your theme does have the template (.tpl) files mentioned in the vqmod file, the edit the vqmod file and change the path to suit your template.
OC uses a fallback system for template files, so if your template doesn't have a certain file, the default is used instead.
The only other thing to check is that if your template file does exist, is the vqod search going to find the code or has that been changed.
If the latter, then more work needs to be done.

Strange thing is that this worked ok until a few days ago, when I saw that it doesn't work anymore. I tried your solution with no success. It still shows products as list.
I was trying to think if I used some other mod and no results came in my mind.

the following file is missing from your server:
catalog/view/javascript/jquery/ui/external/jquery.cookie.js
catalog/view/javascript/jquery/ui/external/jquery.cookie.js
I renamed it after I got some news from the hosting company saying I was under some sort of attack. I found the solution right here on the forums.
Is there any other place I should point to it renamed?

Looks like your host is using apache's mod_security which has some b/s rule about the name of files containing the word 'cookie'
If you ask me mod_security = epic fail, but I digress.
Try changing the header.tpl to point to the newly renamed file.

Did that already. Nothing changed. I guess I'll have to live with list view.

it still has the following in your header.tpl
<script type="text/javascript" src="catalog/view/javascript/jquery/ui/external/jquery.cookie.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="catalog/view/javascript/jquery/ui/external/jquery.cookie.js"></script>
I see it in the page source, but I checked it right now and the modification is done. In both default and custom theme, just to be sure.
Is there any other place where this file is mentioned, besides header.tpl?

Checked it right now and it seemd you didnt change the name of the file in the octheme2 header. Email or call me now and we'll sort it out.
Florin managed to help me with the grid view. I gave up on the option to have list view. I want only grid.
I'll see tonight how I will solve the cookie.js renaming. It seems it finds it somewhere else. I'll get back with the results.
