Menu -> Product Listing = Blank Page?

Ok i have followed the tutorial and i have been through the mill and a lot of money with other shopping cart solutions and i LOVE Hika, I will buy and donate without so much as a blink.. But i cant get the menu to display the contents of a category. I have tried finding answers on the forum i figured its probably a knack and a common pitfall for noobs like me. But it just wont play ball.

I can PM Login details if required, But i must know how to do it...

Red Cart took my penny's and VMart Took my spare time for 2 weeks and i am 2 moments away from a mental breakdown.

I feel like tweek on southpark

I have categories and menu items but i can only get it to link to a One Item Page called (Categories) How do i adjust which are displayed for when i follow the tutorial i get "

You just saved a category listing menu without setting an associated module for it.
If you want to display a product listing below the category listing, you need to add an associated product listing module.
You can do so automatically by clicking here

I get that message every time i save the item ( I have clicked the click here a few times but it doesnt change anything. ( Every time i change the Categries selection it says 17 items then i save and re enter the menu item and it changes back to "2 Categories"

PS. Thanks for the timely reply. Infact after redshop thanks for the reply

Ok i understand what you are saying and i have seen this work on youtube video's and etc but my point is in this instance it is not working.

I have managed to get my Root Category to showup using the Hika Catagory view menu item, But when i try to adjust it it reverts back and spits out

"2 Category"

Im going to backup and do a joomla re-install as im guessing that the remnents of all the other shopping carts are causing issues.

On the associated modules i select published and click OK? I have tried this with many of the

Associated products listing for category listing menu *

and nothing changes. The only way to see products through menu on my site seems to be to use the Category view (which would be fine but it keeps reseting and wont let me select a sub category.

For Simplicity i have just installed the component on one of my other joomla sites and it worked as expected. So it must just be the damage done by the other cart products i have had installed. Thanks for your time nicolas.
