Hi, hmmm, testing now without any problem, the 2,3 works the same like 2,3, except that by the second case, 0 will be added (it means all the categories which have parent_id = 0 - means all root categories will be displayed too) :idea:

means: 2,3 => all categories which belongs to parent category 2 and 3
means: 2,3, => (zero will be added - the same like 2,3,0) - all categories which belongs to parent category 2 and 3 and of course all root categories

:idea:

Hi all,

In the past I faced the same problem. I tried to use the field "Filter Parent Category ID" which appears when I created a menu item of type "List Of Categories (Categories View)". It didn't work no matter what I wrote in that field.

In order to solve the problem you have to go to the "Options" of the component and at the section "Categories View Settings", set the parameter "Display Subcategories" to "yes".

Thanks for this great tool.

Hi, are you sure, category 1 or 2 includes subcategories? Did you set "displaying of subcategories" to yes, like mentioned above?
