Public storefront doesn't show all categories

I'm not sure if this would be considered a technical issue but it is something that I would love to see changed and it's not something I can do myself.

I have my public storefront set up to show collections first and then my categories below that. There is a link to 'view all' collections which redirects the customer to the collections tab which is fine because at least it still looks organized, but the link to 'view all' categories, instead of showing the rest of my category cover images on the home page, switches to the product pages.

I know customers can select a category from the drop down menu on the product pages but the reason I created category covers is so the customers first look at my products is stream-lined and organized.  As it is, instead of seeing all categories they see a mishmash of mixed popular products. My categories aren't new, they've been around forever but I just never noticed that they don't all appear on the home page. Don't know why I made cover images for all of them if they are never seen. 

Is there any hope that this can be changed?

In your store settings - advanced settings - have you got the 'show categories in product tab' checked?

Enabling that shows all the categories (with cover images) *submit to save* and they should show

Well bless my silly little britches, I somehow missed that option. Thanks @Sara_H, that does the trick!
