Sub Category Description Shown in Category List

I thought I had this working previously, but it isn`t now.

I want to be able to see the sub-category description in the category list, like shown below:


[Main category]
[Main category description]

[Sub category 1]
[Sub category 1 Description]

[Sub category 2]
[Sub category 2 Description]

Hi,

You have to edit the file category_subcategories.php of your template.

In the loop:
you can display the subcategory description using :
If you want to use the subcategory image you can use :
I hope it helps.

Rgds.

I had already tried that, but for some reason I`m just seeing the HMTL code of the item description...not the formatted version?

I tried this:

Code:

$sub->description

changed: to: to add some styles to the title, and: to add the description and styles for it

and it really works for me!
I know nothing of php, could you write here the "if" condition to display the description if there is one, and leave the field empty if not.

for the rest (like images display) I'll try to look into categories_categories.php but I do not know what parameters to use.
( I know nothing of php, can just compare and copy )

thank you, will make sure get back and post if I do something nice
cheers
