Having setup VM on my site and produced several products and categories ok. I have create an initial (Category) menu in my main menu to load the shop. This displays all products ok. But I wanted to create a category menu so I have published the VM category module to show on the left side column of my shop. But when I load the shop nothing displays in the left column. I first I though it was a template issue but I was able to publish a custom module to the same location ok. Any idea why the VM Category Menu doesn't show?

I also tried to create individual category menu in a drop down from the main shop menu. But this caused a time out error and I was unable to load a specific category

How did I miss that. I just presumed that the categories were published as products from the categories were showing.
All working fine now

Thank you
