> If I click Sub-category1, the page will shows just the products inserted

> Also, when I click over a product, a page with the single view of that

> I did those steps:
> 1. Install the extension and set pageAsCategory=2

> 3. Insert into page Category1 a tt_product's Plugin with CODE=LIST
> 4. Create some records in page Category1 and page Category2

> But now the page Category1 shows all the products from page Category1

> Reading the manual i see:
> pid_list: The pids from where to fetch categories, products and so on.

In your case you must leave pid_list empty. Then the products of page
Category1 should be shown on that page. You must not use the starting
point of the plugin or set it to Category1 again.
