How to add description in Category Pages?

[learnmechanical2019]

I want to add a short description on category pages, I add a description to the category, but it is not appearing in category pages.

Hey Saswata,

You’re using the Renew stack and regretfully, it doesn’t support the display of a description or an Archive Subtitle. You either need to upgrade to Pro and create a custom header and use the Archive Description Dynamic Content or use the Integrity stack as it has an Archive Subtitle option which you can use to display a short description.

Hope that helps.

ahhh! But actually, this style looks cool, so, is there any snippet (php code) to add the description? like you guys are awesome at custom codes though!

Hi, @ruenel

Thanks much for this. But when I checked the theme editor, I don’t see, category, or archieve.php, can you help me to find out the php file of categories so that I can add that script as well.

Thanks.

Hi Saswata,

The file that you need to edit is the _landmark-header.php under \wp-content\themes\x\framework\legacy\cranium\headers\views\{YOUR STACK}

Find the line that says: is_category()

Underneath that, you should see the title <h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php echo $title; ?></span></h1>

Paste your subtitle code (given from the link above) just below that title.

Please keep in mind that we cant provide support for customizations, it would be your responsibility to take it from here.

Thanks,
