Dear Magento folks,

I am currently facing an issue which is really a pain in the ass. I’ve search the forum all over again, but could not get an solid answer. Hope you people could help me out.

My shop only contains main categories which should be visibile on almost every page. To make this happen I’ve added the left reference with the left navigation block on almost every position on every page.

Can you please guys help?

Please find attached my page.xml and catalog.xml
