Hi, I have installed your extension however right after installation my catalogue is gone. tried to uninstall the extension following you instructions in magentoconnect then the entire site shows multiple errors. Is there any otherway to uninstall ? Thanks

Quick Answer: please read instructions

  1. First, after the installation, you need to reindex the groupscatalog indexes. Then your catalog would be visible again.
  2. Second, after the uninstall, run the query DELETE FROM eav_attribute WHERE attribute_code = 'groupscatalog2_groups';

Thanks for your reply. However either way can't get the site work. If extension installed categories menu show an error and completely gone from menu and if uninstalled like right now, I get all this Jorge Canaveral

Given your error message you have installed the old version of this extension, Netzarbeiter_GroupsCatalog.
That extension does not support Magento 1.6 and younger. This github repository is for the completely rewritten, newer version of the extension called Netzarbeiter_GroupsCatalog2.

That said, run the following query to fix the issue:

DELETE FROM eav_attribute WHERE attribute_code = 'groupscatalog_hide_group';
