默认情况下，该描述不突出。 但是，某些主题可能表明了这一点

Question

I'm using the latest wp version. When I go to edit a category to add descriptions specifically for each category, there is a note that says, "The description is not prominent by default, however some themes may show it."

My theme does not show it. What code do I need to make this visible/prominent? And where would I insert it?

Answer 1

You're looking for category_description() .

<?php echo category_description(); ?>

As for where to add it, that's way too broad of a question. We would have no way of knowing without looking at your theme template system.

Answer 2

To display the category, we want to echo it:

<?php echo category_description();?>

And you would basically treat this as if it is text (because that's what it outputs).

So lets say you have a <div> that you want it displayed within in your theme....

<div class="your-container">
    <?php echo category_description();?>
</div>

And there ya have it!
