Hi, I'd like to modify a category so that instead of pointing to node/# it instead points to view/path. I know that in the menu you can assign a different path to the category but when the category displays as one of a list of many in a container it doesn't point to the view/path. I tried category-path and used my view/path as the url but it pointed to the category node/# instead and overwrote the view/path.

So my menu item works but the menu doesn't show up as a list item within the container, only in a menu. I just want my category link in my container list to point to the view/path but I'm not sure if this can be done or what route to take.

BTW, I tried using the view/path page to display using category_view but it didn't work. I tried at both the category and container levels. I know the view works because when I look at the view at view/path it lists the nodes as configured by view. Trying category_view and I just got a blank.

Thanks.

This is quite old issue, and I quite don't get what's the problem, unless it's just a confusion. We don't need to point links somewhere alse at all, when using the category_views module - with that, the view shows right on the category page itself as content (possibly only content), so we both keep the normal 'node/xxx' path, and have the view there.

I assume this support request is fixed, then (also because it's quiet more than two years).
