PHPLD - Where does the description goes ?

I have written descriptions for each top level categories..
But i dont see them anywhere (except admin panel )

There is a separate field of meta description too ( i input the same things)

Can i know where does the description goes ?

 

Make sure your description meta tags correct at your template.

BTW, which version are you using?

 

check the picture i uploaded, it should go above the subcats.

 

I am using v3.2 ...

 

Are you the coder of your template ? If you are not, then check your header.tpl for the following two lines -

<h1 id="title">{$in_page_title|escape|trim}</h1>
<p id="descr">{$description|escape|trim}&nbsp;</p>

If they are disabled, enable them.

 

did you fill this in? check image

 

{if !empty($MetaKeywords)}
         <meta name="keywords" content="{$MetaKeywords|strip|escape|trim}" />
      {/if}
      {if !empty($MetaDescription)}
         <meta name="description" content="{$MetaDescription|strip|escape|trim}" />
      {/if}

PHP:

These codes work for my v3.2 phpld directory, you may have a try

//edit

I may misunderstand, do you mean the description on categories not in the file source?

 

Yes that is what I did...

No i am not the coder of my template...

Can anybody show me a demo where description is visible on a directory ( should be written from the admin panel - not the articles one )

 

The official demo is working.

 

I already said your coder has disabled or removed the following two lines -

<h1 id="title">{$in_page_title|escape|trim}</h1>
<p id="descr">{$description|escape|trim}&nbsp;</p>

without enabling them you cant see the descriptions...

 

^^iceberg has already said this twice, and he is 100% correct in what he's saying, so you should listen to his advise.

 

paste the code posted by iceberg in main.tpl, topbar or anywhere you want the description to appear

 

OK thanks guys for the help...
Will implement that code soon..

But still looking for a directory with descriptions live in action.

 

eWebPages displays a brief description for top level categories - is that what you're referring to?

 

Yes Creed, thats what I was looking for.
Thanks. You have done a good work.

 

Linksholder.com also have descriptions for top level categories..

Some of mine have the description diplayed below the title.

You just need to put code for it in header.tpl file.
