I have a Parent Category A with a description and no sub products
I have two sub categories with products.

So like this:
A
- B
- C

I am using a simple table view of products to list just titles grouped by categories.
I would like to show the Parent Category A description below the title. I set the description and images to show

The title on the page has the Parent Category title and has a container "hikashop_category_information hikashop_products_listing_main"

I cant find the parent output in the views templates to override/check where the parent title and category might be set.

Can you point me in the right direction?

Hi,
If you want to add your parent category description you'll just have to :
- Go to "Hikashop->Display->Content menus"
- Edit the content menu which have the ID number 276
- Set the "Show description" option to YES

Believe me when I say the plug socket is switched on.

ie yes have set this.

The question I am asking is "where is the override/template code for this"?

You'll be able to edit the code which is displaying it through the "Listing" file of the "Product" view of your front-end template via "Hikashop->Display->Views".
