The default way for categories to be listed is from top to bottom(To make clear what I'm talking about, like on the home page), and I was wondering if someone could make them go left to right.
 
Made this little pictures to show what I'm talking about...
 
The default:


Request for mod to do:

 
Tried to make this as clear as I could, and thanks for any help.

 :arrow: Just bumping this up because it would be really useful if anyone knows how to list the home cats horizontally rather than vertically.

just out of curiosity, why do u need it?

looking at your screnshot, I see that u need this fix:
[FIX v1.7] Subcategories columns not shown proportionaly
Your first three "must do" before you ask a question:
Please do not PM me asking for help unless you've been specifically asked to do so. Such PMs will be deleted without answer. (forum rule #6)

I have many categories - all thumbnailed. So I need it because I want to show new categories 'at the top' (i.e. going across the page) - where visitors can immediately see them.

Thanks, but already used that fix, would just also like to sort them horizontally. Thanks for any help.

bump

there has to be somebody who knows how to do this,
 I would think it would be a common mod
 as the majority of the world reads left to right and not top to bottom.

and help would be great

Thanks

anybody have any comments on this mod?
seems strange that nobody else would want this

it would br very useful , x-specially if you are using the thumbnail category mod
as when you have, say 50 categories that are all thumbnail displayed you have to search in verticle colums
constantly scrolling up and down to find the category in which you want to view.

considering most of the free would reads top down left to right in rows , not in columns
i think this mod would be very useful.

unfortunately my brain is too small to figure out how to do it!

I find it super aggravating to search in this manner.

any comments on this would be very helpful
