    I tried to use GD Categories in my homepage (http://www.pearlpages.com/) to show the Categories and Sub Categories with the place count. So I used it with my current requirement of level 2 depth (parent level and 1 child level) but later I may need to go another level deeper.
    Technically it is working fine but it is giving a professional appearance only when Sub-category level is zero. Once we use with Sub-categories it loses it shape as different categories having different sub-category lengths.

    With this issue i think every Admin would like to see following options which might give them more control over “GD Categories”

    1 . I could’t find any option to arrange all the categories in a single array (may sort according to no of places or A-Z) without considering the level of the category.
    2. A method to display top level categories and maximum of 5 (say) numbers of its sub-categories.
    3. A method to display categories as a Picture array, giving more priority to pictures (eg. https://www.yelp.com/)
    4. A method to get total place count of parent category as the total of its own places plus it’s sub-categories total (I think it should be the correct count)
    5. A method to display only selected categories and sub-categories

    If these options are manageable with current version, please let me know

    Hello,

    1. This is not available.
    2. You can only limit the count of child cats.
    3. It is possible to load categories with their category background image.
    4. This is not available.
    5. This is not available.

    We are planning improvements for this design element and I will take up your ideas and suggest them to the developers.
