    Default Categories box. How can I create a new one (or two...)??

    Hello

    I have been trying to duplicate the categories section because I want to create another box with different style products section on it, but I don´t know what I need to do.
    For example:

    Categories box 1
    Products(20)
    Products(10)
    Products(15)

    Categories box 2
    Products(10)
    Products(3)
    Products(

    Categories box 3
    Products(3)
    Products(6)
    Products(1)

    With its subsections.

    By default, Oscommerce creates one box called Categories where all the products section are viewed.
    If I want to create a Pc categories box section, and a Mac categories box section, Oscommerce in the admin panel can not allow do that. Only subcategories.

    How can I create a new box for categories, and how can I admin this box in the admin section?.

    Any idea?.
    I have been using the next help: http://www.oscdox.com/modules.php?op...%20New%20Boxes
    but I´m not sure what I need to do to admin this new box, categories and subcategories in the admin section.
    I mean, so I can not control the products and subcategories.

    What can I do with that?

    Thanks for reading me

    Default My suggestion

    Make new boxes with help of the exercise available in oscdox guide. Then have a look at catalog/categories.php and admin/categories.php and find out how they are manipulated to display, input and retrive the default categories box. I would prefer to make separate tables for each category of products and link each one of them to the appropriate tables.
    Best of luck.
