Ok. Thanks !

This code is based on joomla 1.5.15 . Never dealt with SVN but I believe this sections of joomla aren't updated that much. Therefore, working with the latest stable version might suffice.

Cheers,
Maia

Hi there,

I've been testing this stuff and I came to the conclusion you don't need the "foreach" piece of codding. In fact the extra piece sometimes result in a blank page.

This is the final code to be inserted:

Code:

$category	=& $this->get('Category');
		$dispatcher	=& JDispatcher::getInstance();
		JPluginHelper::importPlugin('content');
		$category->text = $category->description;
		$results = $dispatcher->trigger('onPrepareContent',array (& $category, & $category->params, 0));
		$category->description = $category->text;

I've also edited the first post reflecting the final code.
