I think I have it if I am correct what I stated above so far, then if I add this code on the category.php page and upload it then all discriptions should show?

If the code is correct then any idea on the page where to put it, I am still reading just a lot of information, ron

<?php echo category_description($category); ?>

Okay I saved file as category.php and going to read and make changes if I have the files wrong let me know.

reports/wp-content/themes/default/

Okay thanks a lot. I am going to look in folders.. I dont see any other folder in my ftp list. Then I am going to copy the main index templet and re-name it then upload it to the file below after making changes.

reports/wp-content/themes/default/

it seams it would be simple thing to do. or they would make displaying your description for a category easy. I cant find an option for this or even a category.php file.

This is the last thing I need to do before I am done with this part of my site.

Thanks, I knew that I dont know what I was thinking, I thought it was more advanced then that. I did add the code for a image, now to find category.php to make sure it shows.

Where do I find the Category Description field?

Ya I just want a simple banner under my header on their surf report page only. I want using a phpbb forum for this entire reports area, but it confusses people when they cant join. It is only to post reports. But I still have to give the person and company who is reporting the banner on there page only. ron.

For example right now I have 5 categories, each one of them needs there own custom banner over the report. here is one category https://northeastsurfing.com/reports/?cat=3

Ya I am putting together wind/surf reports for the northeast. So I sign up a store or company, they can login and post the report on their location (category) But I need to be able to put in a company banner for them over there report. Or anywhere on that page for the report.

So the header, and format is the same on every page, except for a banner promoting there company on their report page.

I will read, I looked around the admin and could not find any thing that looks like I can set up. So I will just read. thanks.

Thanks for the information. I am going to read, to be honest I dont even know where to start, so to start with reading will be good. Every time I think I got wordpress I get lost again. SO I am going to learn how to create the category templates so I can create a new one with each surf report so the reporter can get his plug with a free banner. Thanks. Think of any more tips let me know, ronnie lees.

Thanks for the information but I just dont understand it. I know basic html and have not really gotten into css. All I would like to do is insert the above code into my stylesheet.css so that it will appear on my site as a header with navigation. I am not sure what code goes before it or after it, or where the code goes. Any tips would be great, does not seam that hard to do. Ronnie Lees.

Thanks for the information. If I could get it to work css would be better, yet if your first idea works as well that is fine. Let me know. I am using Kubrick. I am designing two differnt areas of wordpress, both links are below. Both are for different subjects. news / reports

Hey not sure if you can help. But I did everything I want. Yet I would like to addm links to the header. For example upload a header with words like home, forecast, reports, etc, and be able to click them. Any ideas or ways around this?
