It could be a matter of the number of levels in your site map, I think the subcategory listings make use of that to avoid slowing things down with another query.

Hmm I increased the no of levels on the site map in gen appearance settings but nothing changed. Are u sure I don't need to add a piece of code somewhere for it to work?

I was thinking you were using the default templates, but if you're not then you do need all the code that's in the default templates.

Just to check, this is what it I think you're asking for it to look like: http://www.wsnlinks.com/userdemo/HTML

Hi Paul Im not sure why you pointed me to that page, Ill try to explain it a more clearly.

I have a category called SPORT at http://www.urldirect.com.au/directory/Sport

I have a sub category which DOES show the page navigation called GOLF at http://www.urldirect.com.au/directory/Sport/Golf

HERE IS THE PROBLEM, inside GOLF I have another sub cat called CLUBS/COURSES/TOURS which isnt showing the page navigation, you can see that page here. http://www.urldirect.com.au/directory/349

Sry for the caps just trying to make it easiersmiling face

That appears to have nothing to do with the subcategories nav menu, but on this new topic, it must be not figuring properly how many links are in that category so try regenerating categories.

Nope that didnt worksad I guess I could put the links from clubs/courses/tours in the Golf cat and just have one larger categroy but Id rather have it branch out the extra step which would make searching easier for users. So if you know of any other possible solutions please tell me, thanks Paulsmiling face

You could post your template if you've customized anything around there.

Edit: Ah yes. At www.urldirect.com.au/direct...s/default/displaylinks.tpl you can see that you've told it to only show the pagination when there are subcategories in the category.

Actually you have two identical copies of the pagination code, and the first one is inside the subcategories conditional. Not quite what I was thinking but it's odd and wrong.

Sorry to be a pain and a noob lol. I deleted one of the pagination codes but still no change. Perhaps you could tell me the exact code to add and where? confused
