How can I display just the immediate sub-categories from the current category I am viewing?

I am using the category name in url feature

My categories are as such:

Dogs
-Big Dogs
—Dalmatians
—Great Danes
-Small Dogs
—Terriers
—Chihuahua s

If I am on viewing the mysite.com/category/Dogs

I want to list the two sub categories: Big Dogs, Small Dogs

If I am l viewing mysite.com/category/Big_Dogs

I want to list the two sub categories: Dalmations, Small Dogs

How would I do this with ExpressionEngine?

Does anyone know an answer to this one?

Most people use the Subcats Plugin

It’s not meant to be used with category names in url titles, but you could do some query magic to grab the parent id based on the segment, and then post the child items.

But that would be a HowTo question instead of a Technical Support question.

You could also try this plugin ...
