Hi, i want to insert the category description in the category page.

I have insert this shortcode in functions.php (child):

add_shortcode( 'term_description', 'tu_term_description' );
function tu_term_description() {
    ob_start();
    echo term_description( get_queried_object()->term_id, 'category' );
    return ob_get_clean();
}

Hi there,

did you add the Shortcode: [term_description] to the Header Element content ?

[Alessandro]

No I did not. How should it be created?

[David]

Go to Appearance > Elements and edit the Header Element you have assigned to your archives.
Below the Title HTML insert: [term_description]

Thank you David, now Work! 🙂
