Non of the "category descriptions" contributions work

Hello,

 

I'm probably missing something simple. I have my site working great, but I need to add descriptions to my categories. None of the contributions are working for me. I must of installed another contribution for an unrelated addition, and I think that is what's preventing the categories description contributions from working correctly.

 

Is there anyone who knows osCommerce pretty well as to what I might of done?

 

I would like to be able to keep the category pictures as well as showing a description.

 

Thank you very much for your time, I try to do everything myself before resorting to posting a help question such as this.

It looks like you either didn't fill in the page heading for the games category or you commented out a bit of code.

 

In any event...

 

This contribution worked fine for me - Category Description 5.02

 

But what you really should do is add - Header Tags SEO

And yes, it also helps with search engines.

 

Search around the forums for more info on SEO.

There are a few other contributions that I know are worth installing, such as -

 

All Products SEO

Dynamic Site Map V 3.4

Google XML Sitemap Feed v1.3

Ultimate SEO URLs v2.1d ORIGINAL updated

Updated Spiders.txt

I would recommend changing the list to use Sitemap SEO instead of Dynamic Sitemap and be sure to use version 1.3 of the Google Sitemap. Otherwise you will run into a duplicate content problem.
