Hello all

I have an issue that I am struggling with. I have created an Article type in Seblod with some additional fields. I then have a menu item type "category blog" that displays the intro section (and additional fields) of my article. The category description is also displayed at the top of the page (the category description also has an additional field).

My question is: how can I make the category description (and additional field) display on the full article page? I can't seem to work out any way to do it.

Many thanks for your help.
Michael.

Did you put both fields on the intro and the content 'view'? In other words are the fields in intro and content exactly the same?

This is not possible because a category and its description is only displayed in category view, not in an article view. You could probably have a custom module in a position above the article that pulls the cat desc via a custom sql query, or you do a position/variation override and pull the data from the $cck object. I dont know if the cat desc is part of that but you can check that with a an echo $cck.
