    Hi guys,

    I put some code on my categories.php page to make subcategory boxes appear, the only problem is it puts boxes for all the sub-sub categories too all mixed in, e.g.

    https://www.apeshop.com.au/store-reviews-australia/

    I only want the top level subcategories like “Fashion” to appear here, note it also lists Sunglasses, Lingerie, Shoes etc which are subcategories within fashion.

    So how can I set it to go only one category deep? i.e. just show the top level subcategories?

    This is my category.php file:

    <?php

    /**

    * The template for displaying Category Archive pages.

    *

    * @package WordPress

    * @subpackage Twenty_Ten

    * @since Twenty Ten 1.0

    */

    get_header(); ?>

    <div id=”container”>

    <div id=”content” role=”main”>

    <style type=’text/css’>

    .joe_sc {

    display:inline;

    }

    .joe_sc a { display:block; float:left; text-align:center; color:#666; width:195px; height:100%; background: #E9FFEF; padding:3px; border: solid #D2F5DB 1px; margin:3px;}

    .joe_sc a:hover { color:#000; background: #C9EECF; }

    </style>

    <?php

    global $wp_query;

    $subcategories = get_categories(“child_of={$wp_query->query_vars[‘cat’]}”);

    if(count($subcategories) >= 1) {

    foreach($subcategories as $sc) {

    echo “<div class=’joe_sc joe_subcategory_{$sc->cat_ID}’>cat_ID) . “‘>” . $sc->name . “</div>”;

    }

    echo “<br clear=’all’ />”;

    }

    ?>

    <?php

    $category_description = category_description();

    if ( ! empty( $category_description ) )

    echo ‘<div class=”archive-meta”>’ . $category_description . ‘</div>’;

    /* Run the loop for the category page to output the posts.

    * If you want to overload this in a child theme then include a file

    * called loop-category.php and that will be used instead.

    */

    genesis_standard_loop();

    ?>

    </div><!– #content –>

    </div><!– #container –>

    <?php get_sidebar(); ?>

    <?php get_footer(); ?>
