Hello, I would like to be able to show the categories without the selector and below them show the recent topics precisely like this site: [https://forums.wyzecam.com](https://forums.wyzecam.com).  
The following image shows how in the mentioned forum the categories appear without the selector.

The selector appears just after the categories and shows recent topics.

My doubt is rather if there is already a theme component or plugin that can do this or is it something customized from the same site, I checked that on said site they apparently use “Showcased Categories”.

(Sorry I didn’t know what category to put this question in.  
I also did not find anything related in the search, so I dare to ask.)
