Hello.

I am setting up a Hikashop and am trying to display a page header which shows the image of the category the user is within.

Having played around with the content module options and looked in the documentation I cannot find a way to do this, is this possible?

For example:

I have categories A, B, C

So when I enter category A I would like that image to be displayed as a 'page header', then the same behaviour for every sub category below that. (but not just showing the main parent)

Regards,
Tim

Hi,

That's quite easy.
Add your images in the description of the corresponding categories and in the hikashop options of your menu, turn on the option "show description" and you will see the corresponding image at the top of the listing when you select a category.

Hi Nicolas,

That works great. I'm not quite sure how I didn't think of that before, it seems so obvious now! ![:P](/media/kunena/emoticons/15.png ":P")
Sometimes you get caught up in doing things the 'hard way'.

Thanks for your help ![:)](/media/kunena/emoticons/8.png ":)")
