Hi - I renamed my root category in a previous installation of Productcart and went to do the same in a new installation, but it didn't work out. I recall having to do a trick last time, but I can't find any info on it.

In cart #1 the default is now called "Root"
In cart #2 the default is called "No Parent - Top Level Category"

In cart #1 everything assigned to "Root" appear just fine in the front end
In cart #2 anything assigned to "No Parent" won't show up in the front (all of their subcategories do though"

any suggestions on what I did/didn't do would be greatly appreciated!

thank
