Customizing Category Display

[girlscoutsjs]

Is there a way to customize the main page displaying categories to either list the main category as a subcategory as well, or to only list the main category and not display the sub categories until the main category is selected?

Here's my issue. We have multiple categories that are set up as follows:

Category -> Subcategory 1
Category -> Subcategory 2
Category -> Subcategory 3

We have files located in the main category as well as all three sub categories. When users see the menu below, they don't know to click on "Category" to see additional files.

Category
Subcategory 1
Subcategory 2
Subcategory 3


Is there a way to get the page to show:
Category
Category (or alias, if possible)
Subcategory 1
Subcategory 2
Subcategory 3

Or to only show this:
Category
Category
Category

with the sub categories listed only after you've clicked and drilled down into the Category menu.


Any help or alternate suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you.

An easy workround should be to have a subcategory named as the category, so you will see the list of all subcategories AND the container of the files the should be in the top category too.
In your example, adding a 4th sucategory called "category" should do the trick (of course files must be moved there).

I had the same thought but wanted to ask first, in case others had the same issue and it had been addressed in other ways. I didn't want to game the system if there was a more obvious/better way to proceed already in place.
