    I am trying to add a revolution slider in the product category description.

    On a regular page I see it: https://nouslesavon.com/draft-exfoliants/

    But on the category page it does not show: https://nouslesavon.com/categorie-produit/savons/exfoliant/

    (I copied the same content from my page editor to the category page but I also tried with only the slider shortcode – same probleme)

    Please, contact administrator
    for this information.

    Hello,

    Go to Products > Categories > edit the category and add slider shortcode in the category description, for example [rev_slider alias="slider name"]

    It is what I did! If you inspect the page I gave you, you can see at the top of the category description.
    But it doesn’t show on the page.

    Hello, @joblette

    Problem is caused by Visual Term Description Editor plugin. It adds unnecessary <p> tags http://prntscr.com/ehsowd and it crashes the rev slider code. I have deactivated the plugin and everything works fine.

    Hello, @Sellejr,

    Add the products to your category. The empty category does not show description. If we show the description your empty category will be http://prntscr.com/ehsyya
    I’m not sure that it is nice. But if you like it we can send you the code to show product description for the empty category.

    Regards
