Hi,

Ethos Stack by design does not include the category description.

See Demo - http://demo.theme.co/ethos-1/category/fashion/

To make it display the category description, you need to do the following.

1. Install and activate child theme - https://theme.co/apex/forum/t/setup-how-to-setup-child-themes/57
   2)Create file _landmark-header.php in wp-content/themes/x-child/framework/legacy/cranium/headers/views/ethos and copy the code below into that file.

<?php

// =============================================================================
// VIEWS/ETHOS/_LANDMARK-HEADER.PHP
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Handles content output of large headers for key pages such as the blog or
// search results.
// =============================================================================

$disable_page_title = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_x_entry_disable_page_title', true );
