When I use the category menu and select the particular category which is for a painting competition and comprises of two sections, as below, the title of the category is displayed but description and image from the category are not displayed on the frontend web page.

 

Details

I have created two sections for a painting competition

  • up to 7 years
  • 8 - 11 years

each of the two sections has an image and details of the particulars

I have Also created a category to which the above two contest belong.  This category has an image and more details of the contest.

Would appreciate you thoughts as to why the content of the category is not being displayed

Hi David,

There is no such functionality when a user proceeds to a specific category. Image and description displays on the list of all cateogries.

See: https://playground.norrnext.com/categories

But there is no image and description on the specific category page (as on your screenshot):

https://playground.norrnext.com/category

 

But you can get such functionality via еру template layout override by adding the following code:

Display image:

<?php echo $category->getParams()->get('image', ''); ?>

Display description:

<?php if (!empty($category->description)) : ?>
     <?php echo  $category->description; ?>
   <?php endif; ?>
