Ok this got me realy pissed. spending a lot of time putting links in,beeing very carefull of what im doing.. but still..
i created a main category that now holds 10 sub categories. but..that shows 1 sub double... !
this happend when i created a sub and forgot to set it under the main category,so it was created as a main cat to.. so i moved it under the main and that was that.. however,it still shows the duplicate like ...video , video they have catid=9 and catid=10 I see both of them but where ever i look it only shows once if i go to category edit. I run all the regeneration stuff.
how is that possible?
And whats even worse... It even doesnt show the links added INSIDE that category ! But i know its there !
When moving categories to a new parent category you may need to regenerate categories to update the subcategories list. Admin Panel -> Maintenance -> Regenerate Counters, click either regenerate all or regenerate categories and let it run.
I run all the regeneration stuff.
Well then, what are you actually seeing? What does "shows 1 sub double... !" mean exactly? Do you have an example URL, or at the very least a screenshot?
It even doesnt show the links added INSIDE that category !
Sounds odd, I'll need a URL or at least debug info.
Well I'm trying this: 1) Edited a top level category, moved it beneath another top level category. Note both of them have subcategories and some links. 2) Regenerated all.
Everything looks perfect. The newly-moved category shows up in the subcategories list on the front page. Clicking through both categories there's nothing unusual about them.

sorry paul...
will keep in mind next time to show some proof..
i suggest you do some testing with switching sub-cats..
i had to delete a sub that didnt showed anywhere with an option to delete it...
weird huh...
so i had to delete the sub directory from which it created the duplicate..
after that it was fixed....
