   I have the below code that works partially. I need it to force sub, sub, categories to use the category template as well. Any ideas?

   function child_force_category_template($template) {
   
       $cat = get_query_var('cat');
       $category = get_category ($cat);
   
       if ( file_exists(TEMPLATEPATH . '/category-' . $category->cat_ID . '.php') ) {
           $cat_template = TEMPLATEPATH . '/category-' . $category ->cat_ID . '.php';
       }
       elseif ( file_exists(TEMPLATEPATH . '/category-' . $category->category_parent . '.php') ) {
           $cat_template = TEMPLATEPATH . '/category-' . $category->category_parent . '.php';
       }
       else{
           $cat_template = $template;
       }
   
     return $cat_template;
   }
   add_action('category_template', 'child_force_category_template');

   It seems as though this code only works with a category and its child. I need the child's child. If that makes sense? Is there an easy way to do this?

   Basically it's a grand parent category. I still can't figure out how to do this?
