I am battling with the layout on a menu with this menu item type: List All Categories in an Article Category Tree
What I did to get this error on my menu page:
Create Article master category "Faculties"
with six sub-categories:
Each of these sub-categories have a sub-sub-categories.
Then create a "Faculty" menu with this menu item type: List All Categories in an Article Category Tree
Set all to show even if empty (no articles)
Expected result
The expected tree for Faculty is
[Faculties]
---16px--->[Applied Sciences]
------32px------>[Biotechnology]
------32px------>[Horticulture]
------32px------>[Etc..]
------32px------>[Etc..]
---16px--->[Business]
------32px------>[Law-of-contracts]
------32px------>[Etc...]
------32px------>[Etc..]
------32px------>[Etc..]
---16px--->[Education]
------32px------>[Sociolinguistics]
------32px------>[Etc...]
------32px------>[Etc..]
------32px------>[Etc..]
---16px--->[Engineering]
------32px------>[Mechanical Engineering]
------32px------>[Etc...]
------32px------>[Etc...]
------32px------>[Etc...]
etc.
With each sub Category with a padding-left: 16px ;
and each Sub Sub Category with a padding-left: 32px ;
with the next sub menu going back to a padding-left: 16px ;
Which is the same hierarchy as they were set up
Actual result
[Faculties]
---16px--->[Applied Sciences]
------32px------>[Biotechnology]
------32px------>[Horticulture]
------32px------>[Etc..]
------32px------>[Etc..]
------32px------>[Business]
---------48px--------->[Law-of-contracts]
---------48px--------->[Etc...]
---------48px--------->[Etc..]
---------48px--------->[Etc..]
---------48px--------->[Education]
------------64px------------>[Sociolinguistics]
------------64px------------>[Etc...]
------------64px------------>[Etc..]
------------64px------------>[Etc..]
------------64px------------>[Engineering]
---------------80px--------------->[Mechanical Engineering]
---------------80px--------------->[Etc...]
---------------80px--------------->[Etc...]
---------------80px--------------->[Etc...]
etc.
as you can see the next sub menu has the same padding left as the previous sub sub menu which keeps pushing the the list left instead of jumping back to show the correct placement hierarchy
This makes it look like we have sub-categories
followed sub sub-categories
followed by sub-sub-sub-categories
and the sub-sub-sub-sub-categories etc.
Hence continually indenting further which is not accurate to the category hierarchy.
