Display Category Description on Event Category Page

[Aein]

Hello,

I have tried multiple solutions previously about this topic:

Display Category Description on Event Category Page

Show Category Description

Show Category Description

However, none of the solutions work.

I’m trying to get the event category description field to display on the category page: /events/category/xxxx

I’ve copied the template file /plugins/the-events-calendar/src/views/list/content.php
to my-theme/tribe-events/list/content.php

Thank you.

Hi Aein,

Thanks for reaching out. Sounds like you’re on the right track having already copied over that file!

To display the description on the list view, you can add this snippet into that template where you would like it to display:


<?php if( tribe_is_event_category() ) {
$cat = get_queried_object();
echo category_description( $cat->ID );
}
?>


Please let me know if you have any questions!

Thanks,

Jennifer
