Show categories (buying guides)

Hello,

Maybe you can have something very close to your needs, see my screenshot :

Hi,

Why do you say what Philippe proposed doesn't work for you ? It would be great to know so that we better understand what you want. Because what he said should allow you to get a layout like on your PDF. So maybe we're missing some information to be able to gie you the advice you need.

An alternative would be to use loadmodule content tags in a Joomla article:
- Make sure each row of products you want to display is in a different category
- Create a module instance of the type "HikaShop content module" for each row of product via the Joomla modules manager (you need to select the corresponding category in the "main category" setting of the module.
- Create a Joomla article, so that you can add your diffrerent text blocks, and use the loadmodule tag docs.joomla.org/How_do_you_put_a_module_inside_an_article%3F to add the products in between the text blocks.

Hi,

You want to change the type of your menu item from "category listing" to "product listing". Then, with the "sub element filter" setting set to "grouped by category", you'll get something closer to what you want.
Then, you'll just need a view override on product / listing to add the category description below the category name. That's quite easy to do, by adding the code:

<div class="subcategory_description"><?php echo $category['category']->category_description; ?></div>

<h2><?php echo $category['category']->category_name; ?></h2>

Hi,

In the file product / listing when you edit it via the menu Display>Views.
Here is the documentation on how to override view files:
