Showing categories as start page

src

I've hunted around and haven't found anything quite like I'm trying to do.

I'd like to have the categories listed on my start page, and have the user click those to get to the products.

It would look like a products page, but be a listing of the categories (in addition to the text menu on the side).

I'm sure this is pretty simple, so sorry if it's been solved before and I missed it.

Thanks

src - edit index.php and add if to show another page with that list. in that "if" add

if You want show categories list from top menu then change 1 to 2. You need to create file templates/categories_list.tpl with the same code from templates/categories_menu.tpl . and now You need to design all

Thanks for the direction treewood.

I've studied index.php, but I'm still a little unsure of where to put the if and the code you supplied. Does it go on the Add Ons Functions section? Or does it go down by the BlockPage section?

Thanks
