edit file: components/com_flexicontent/views/category/view.html.php

Replace
Code:
$results = $dispatcher->trigger('onPrepareContent', array (& $category, & $params, 0));
with
Code:
$results = $dispatcher->trigger('onContentPrepare', array ('com_content.category', &$category, &$params, 0));

will commit fix

One more thing. I listed subcategories including their description in category view. If the subcategory description contains a plugin, in my case loadposition, the plugin does not work. Only the plugin text {loadposition moduleposition} is shown.

Ok it we have fixed for category description but triggering content plugins for all subcategories may harm performance, nevertheless it is easy to include it in your template, this should work although i have not tested it:
Code:
if ($this->params->get('trigger_onprepare_content_cat')) // just check if the parmeter is active { JPluginHelper::importPlugin('content'); $dispatcher = & JDispatcher::getInstance(); foreach ($this->categories as $sub) : // Allow to trigger content plugins on category description $sub->text = $sub->description; $results = $dispatcher->trigger('onContentPrepare', array ('com_content.category', &$sub, &$this->params, 0)); $sub->description = $sub->text; } }

For j1.5
replace:
$results = ...
with:
$results =
Code:
$dispatcher->trigger('onPrepareContent', array (& $sub, & $this->params, 0));

I have opened an enhancement issue for examining to add these.

Regards
