[TYPO3-ttnews] excludeList in catmenu do not work...

[Luca]

Hi,

I have installed tt_news 2.2.24 on a TYPO3 Ver. 4.2.1 clean installation.

I have tried to control the CATMENU categories using  excludeList as 
stated on the current online manual
http://typo3.org/documentation/document-library/extension-manuals/tt_news/2.5.0/view/1/7/#id2931185

plugin.tt_news {
     displayCatMenu.excludeList = 1,2
     displayCatMenu.mode = nestedWraps
}

Although I followed  (I think) the suggested setup, my catmenu still 
displays all categories. How can I control which categories display in 
the catmenu?

....

Also I have another question...(can I still post it here or should be on 
a different post???)....

It is a way to display the catmenu as a second level within the mainMenu?
(I have News in the main menu...I would like to have a second level menu 
with the categories...)

I have found the following post...
http://www.typo3-jack.net/typo3-english-lists-netfielders-de/11824-typo3-how-put-catmenu-hmenu-templavoila.html

but I cannot understand what to set in code = CATMENU (maybe this is a t 
dummy question but this is one ofd my first projects with t3...)

lib.leftmenu.1.CUR < plugin.tt_news
lib.leftmenu.1.CUR = 1 # Maybe this is not necessary. You must just
make sure this value is not lost or CUR won't display
lib.leftmenu.1.CUR {
code = CATMENU
...
}


Thank you!!!
