Hi everyone, sometime back somebody mentioned to me a component (or was it a plugin?) that would allow me to have more control over what is currently my category navbar. I unfortunately can’t for the life of me find it again (brain fail) :anxious_face_with_sweat::cry:. Help? It was something that w…
