HI,
Newbie with K2, i'm taking over a web site built with this component.
I have the following category structure:
CATEGORY
--- SUBCAT 1
--- SUBCAT 2
--- SUBCAT 3
--- SUBCAT 4
CATEGORY2
--- SUBCAT 1
--- SUBCAT 2
--- SUBCAT 3
--- SUBCAT 4
Each subcat have a description (admin/K2/Categories/Subcategory/description)
But I cannot find a way to display it on the website.
I've tried using templating with no result.I have enabled intro text with no result.

Hello Marc,
I think this would be easier to accomplish with a custom mod_menu module. You can use the menu item's image and notes to enter your K2 category's image and description.

HI Krikor
Thanks for you reply, but sorry, not sure what you meant.
I would like to avoid to replicate the category/subcategory in the menu items.
My menu is one level only:
Menu 1 (home page)
Menu 2 (K2 category : lists the sub categories)
Menu 3 (K2 category B! Lists the sub categories)
The sub categorie are accessed by click on the subcategory title.
Have a look @ the web site: www.lesjardinsdusud.com

By default K2 lists a flat list of the current category's children.
This can be extended either by a mod_menu module or by a custom K2 module (the K2 content or categories module do not offer this functionality).
