Description in Category List

[Frathos]

Hi! its me again!

I have one simple question, is there a way to show category description in category list? I know you can see description once you click on category, but the guy who will pay for my work, wants description before the click

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I'm sorry, that's not possible with the default component. With the Phoca Gallery plugin you can create an article, and put the category list in that article.

That means I can put description for multiple categories, so, thats it !

caro, you are life savior

Cheers!

If you want to change the code so that the description shows in the category list you need to add the following code:

views/categories/tmpl/default.php

Code: Select all

echo ''.$this->categories[$i]->description.'';

or for subcategories

views/category/tmpl/default.php

Code: Select all

echo $this->category->description
