Hi,
In $this->element you have the data of the main category of the listing.
If you want to use the data of each category on the listing, you should use $this->row instead.
And "info" needs to be the same as the column name of your custom field of the table "category".
Finally, There are many view files to display the block of a category in a categories listing.
You might not be editing the correct one.
So make sure that it's the correct one thanks to the "Display view files" setting of the HikaShop configuration.
And finally, supposing that it's the correct view file you're editing, make sure you're editing it for the correct frontend template and not another one or you won't see any change.
