Hi Tori,

Regarding your inquiry, unfortunately there is no setting to reconfigure the category url according to parent and child category currently.

Please look at all these pages and look at the right sidebar. I need some help ASAP!

http://www.newlifenowlv.com/healthy-living (when you click a subcategory in the sidebar it stays in the healthy living category - which is what I want)

http://www.newlifenowlv.com/challenges (when you click a subcategory in the sidebar it stays in the healthy living category - which is NOT what I want. It needs to stay in the CHALLENGES category - see how the URL changes back to the HEALTHY LIVING sidebar on this page)

http://www.newlifenowlv.com/relationships (when you click a subcategory in the sidebar it stays in the healthy living category - which is NOT what I want. It needs to stay in the RELATIONSHIPS category - see how the URL changes back to the HEALTHY LIVING sidebar on this page)

I need step-by-step instructions how to set this up in the backend using menu items and hidden menu items.

The client will add their own subcategories in the frontend, so I cant make subcategory backend menu items for this to work.

Please provide me with a solution so I dont have to keep typing back and forth for days.

Does this not make sense to you? Is there another way to get this to work? Am I using the wrong module in the sidebar?

Nevermind, I couldnt wait, so I changed the categories module in the side bar.

This is what I need help with now - its the URL thing.

If you go to any of these pages,
http://www.newlifenowlv.com/healthy-living
http://www.newlifenowlv.com/challenges
http://www.newlifenowlv.com/relationships, etc.

you will see the same category sidebar for each page. When you click on the toggle to a subcategory, why doesn't the URL reflect what page you are on. Every subcategory you click on has this URL in it as the prefix.

http://www.newlifenowlv.com/hl/categories

For example, in the CHALLENGES main category, and you click on the subcategory STROKE, how do I get the URL to read:
http://www.newlifenowlv.com/challenges/stroke

Please help me.

Hi Tori Jones,

As I clarify before, there is no setting to reconfigure the category url according to parent and child category currently
The only way to make to url to obey the domain.com/parentcategory/childcategory/ is by configure the menu structure,
if not, it will fallback using default url structure domain.com/blogalias/categories/categoryname

The only way you can do is create a hidden menu and configure the single category menu
for example : http://www.screencast.com/t/f01hMGmQ
