HELP!
I have a standard Hikashop Product listing Menu type displaying products from a specific category.

Within the menu options I have set the display page title to Yes, but I cannot find where I can set the option to display the category description. When I look in the templates there is code to display the description but I cannot find in the backend where the setting is.

Also how do I globally turn off pagination, I do not want any pagination on the category / product listings.

Thanks

Lee

Hi,

When you edit your menu item via the Joomla menu manager, you can find that option under the "products options" tab:
[ take.ms/6nwyb](http://take.ms/6nwyb)

Nicolas,
Thanks for that, I did try that but nothing changed.

I also tried turning off my custom templates but it still did not display the category description:

[ cotswoldlavender.under-development.info/...lavender/bath-shower](http://cotswoldlavender.under-development.info/index.php/cotswold-lavender/bath-shower)

I have modified the product item page to display the category description:

[ cotswoldlavender.under-development.info/...eanser-essential-oil](http://cotswoldlavender.under-development.info/index.php/cotswold-lavender/bath-shower/product/lavender-handcleanser-essential-oil)

But it does not display on the products listing menu page.

Global settings are where you should expect them, indeed: in the system configuration! And there's "Pagination" as well: [ www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/5...html#display\_general](https://www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/54-hikashop-config.html#display_general)

Hi,

If you just want to remove the pagination for a product listing under a category listing ; you need to activate the "random" on the product listing.
In that specific case, each time the display will be random and the pagination will be removed (because if products are random each time, you can't browse them).

Regards,
