Is there a possibility to disable the category menu on the left side inside categories other than creating a new template. maybe a setting I didn’t find yet.

Hello, No, Shopware does not have such possibility. The easiest way would be to extend template. If it’s an option for you, I found a [plugin](http://store.shopware.com/en/blmedia01196/hide-left-column-/-navigation.html) that seems to do exactly what you want.
