Hi,

To add category description in the directory view :

You can add in com_flexicontent/views/flexicontent/tmpl/default_categories.php

for example before
And to display subcategories description :

Add
between And
Use Joomla overriding way to keep it when you will update FC.

hello
great news edit your post to [solved]
thanks

We have updated directory view not only to use category image and description, the result now is very nice ...,
also added
- separate thumbnail creation parameters for categories and subcategories (different sizes, processing method, etc)
- also added ability to extract an image from description or try both category parameter and extracting from description
- also added description with stripped html and parameter for maximum length (separate parameters for categories and subcategories)
- css styling

in Joomla 1.6+, removed the category image column!

New location is in category attributes, so code must be updated to use new location ...

As soon as the category model and the directory (called flexicontent) model are update the J1.7 category image parameter will start working too.
