    Hello
    This is an EE 1.68 question. Ive made research and also checked some templates to figure this out but kinda struct at one point now. So would like to ask your opinion on something i feel very simple 😊

    First question
    On the page of Category,
    It seems that on the category hiearchy, if you choose a sub category, automaticly the parent category is choosen too. And thus, in such listing category, a entry is listed under the parent as well as the sub category . like this

    Category A
    Article under category b <== unwanted duplicated links
    ===Category a
    ===Article under category b <== unwanted duplicated links
    ======Category b <== original category
    ======Article under category b <== original position

    Is there a way to make the entry show under only sub category and not in the parent category?

    Second question

    I want to show sub categories in category page. in example
    website/site/category/c11 should produce c11 content. But c11 which is category B has 6 sub categories also. 

    How can i show these sub categories in category page?


    Category B (c11)
    ===Category a
    ======Category b <==== Im in
    ====== Article under category b
    =========Category c
    ============Category d
    ============Category e
    ============Category f

    Any input is welcome.
    Thank you

    Also, Im trying to achieve the following but with no luck

    {embed="add/header" title="{exp:weblog:entries weblog="weblog" limit="1"}{title}{/exp:weblog:entries}|{exp:weblog:categories weblog='weblog'}{category_name}{/exp:weblog:categories}"}

    to achieve

    title | category - on the title page

    Ok Ive fixed some problems from my posts above. How ever im still stuck with this

    Second question

    ====== Article under category b
    =========Category c
    ============Category d
    ============Category e
    ============Category f

    Any input is welcome.

    Im currently using category url titles so the weblog pages are generated through category/category_name/article. Kinda way.

    So please let me know how i can achieve this. Thank you.
