I’d like to be able to show a single top-level category and its subcategories on a page. I couldn’t see how that was achievable with the shortcode editor. Can it be done, and if so, how?

Do you want to show links to the subcategories, or you want to list the listings in the category?
Every category automatically has its own page, and if you add the GD > Categories element to the GD Archive page, you can filter that GD Categories element to only show subcategories.
Let us know how you went. Thanks

Add this shortcode [or its equivalent block] to
GD > Settings > Pages sub-tab > GD Archive > Edit
```
[gd_categories post_type="0" title_tag="h4" hide_empty="1" sort_by="count" max_level="1" max_count="all" max_count_child="all"]
```
Adjust as required.
Thanks
