So I've got a few sub-categories, and I'd like their description shown in the category view. Like image description. Is that possible?

If I understand you correctly,,, then there is no option to display description for subategories in a category view display.
I only know you can display description under categories when you view the main page of Phocagallery
For this you have to link to Phoca gallery Category List Layout

Jan, I want the description just like that under the pics, but for categories.
And siddan, I have my gallery front page as one user's cat, in which are all the (sub)categories. And I'd like to have description shown for these.
Thanks already mates.

Hi, I couldn´t reply sooner, was accused of spamming
Do you only have one category shown on the front page?
Cus you can enable to also show subcategories with its description, it just will not tell you that they are actually subcategories

You have an option to display sub categries Yes or No
8th option from the top in Global Configuration
And the 3rd option you can select how to display the Categories, with detail information

And is there something to manage what I see there? Like, I don't really want all this info "viewed, image count" etc. And if I could get the height to match.
Hope I'm not asking stupid things.
Thanks again mate.

Hehe I was waiting for that question
Have a look at this thread. Needs a little hacking in the core files, though.

But if you are not familiar with php you can comment out whole lines of code with //
Just place "//" after echo //

Can I just copy something like this:
Code: Select all
echo '<div style="margin-right:5px;margin-left:'.$this->tmpl['imagewidth'].'px;">';
if ($this->categories[$i]->description != '') {
echo '<div>'.$this->categories[$i]->description.'</div><p> </p>';
}
to category/default.php? If so, then where?
Thanks again.
