Okay looking into this further:
445/447 of showcat.php are:
Code:
Content visible to verified customers only.
But the a-href tags are already supplied by$catimage as it's the output from the function get_thumbtpl (in pp-inc) which is defaulting because of the code:
function get_thumbtmpl( $id, $imgtag, $height, $width, $thumbtag, $whichcat = -1, $thislink = "" ) {
$whichcat seems to be set to -1 no matter what? muh?
As a result we get an href tag around a table with a junked href tag inside that.
I think the -1 and null setting for $thislink are junk and debug gumf? I removed the ="-1" bit and the $thislink preset and it all worked for me.
