Magento Layered Navigation Categories

I would like the user to be sent to the category landing page when the user clicks the category in layered navigation.

So instead of the user getting /category.html?cat=11, they would get /category/RedWidget.html?cat=11 when they click the RedWidget category.

I found this link, but his code doesn't work.

Thanks ahead of time!

Category landing pages are usually defined in the same place where you created the category. Set the display mode to CMS block or CMS block + products and you should see your content displayed for the user.

If this isn't what you are expecting, please elaborate on what you are using as a "category landing page".

Let's say I have 3 sub-categories, they all have CMS blocks. If a user is on the main-category and clicks any of the sub-categories in the layered navigation, the above happens.

Try setting the subcategories as anchors. That may do the trick.

Oh, i have no issue with the categories showing up. My issue is with the category links in the Layered Navigation not actually linking to the category pages.
