    Hello
    I would like to if there is an option to add a TXT BOX in the “header” of each product category (the txt box will be used for a description of the specific category).

    You have instruct me how to implement a similar requirement: add a TXT BOX in the “header” of the SHOP main page by using the visual composer but in this case there is no “separated” page for each of the category

    Thanks in advanced

    For me, it look like a “feature” that many customer would like to use because, it enable to create some kind Introduction that can help customer to understand what is include on a specific category or what is the charters of the specific category.
    I some day you will add this option, I would be more than happy

    Hello
    Does your theme provide a “Paid customization services” in which a technical person could write for me the required code that will enable me to add a “description box” in the header of each category page?

    Hello,

    You can try to use “Description” section in Products > Categories > edit a category and write your text in there.
    If it doesn’t satisfy you, you can contact us via this contact form https://www.8theme.com/contact-us/ for additional customization.

    Thank you.

    Hello Eva
    I have found a workaround for this issue
    The solution is based on WordPress plugin named: CategoryTinymce
    ( https://wordpress.org/plugins/categorytinymce/screenshots/)
    After installing this plugin, he extend the capabilities of the category description
    For example
    Before we use this plugin, the category interface look like:

    After we use this plugin, the category interface look like:

    Hello,

    We’ve find a fix to this problem and you don’t need use some 3rd plugin.
    Please open style.css file then find and replace

    .category-description{
    display:none;
    }

    to

    .category-description{
    display:block;
    }

    and save change.

    Hello Robert
    Thanks a lot , I really appreciate the effort
    Just to be on the safe side
    I use a child theme
    The style.css of the child theme is “empty” ( beside minor updates)
    Do you mean to update the style.css of the “original theme”?
    Is there any other way to implement this CSS update via the child theme style.css file ?
    Thanks in advanced

    Maybe I can add it to the child theme CSS with the “important” sign?
    ( so the setting of the child will override the setting of the original theme )

    Hello,

    If you’re using child theme you can add that code in style.css in child theme folder.
    Please try it.

    Thank you.
