Title: Category description not appearing from linked Subcategory
Post by: melsonmarketing on June 04, 2020, 17:32:49 PM
Hi!

I have a strange behaviour on this site:

https://www.sapodoris.de

Entering a category from the menu, the category description is shown.
Following the linked category-image from the startpage (type is vm-categoryview), the category description does not appear - even it's the same URL.

Even more creepy: After refreshing the page, the description appears.

Try for example "Pflegeprodukte" from the categoryimage on the startpage AND from the submenu under "Shop"

Within VM config the settings are:

show shop-description = NO
show ctegory description = YES

the same settings are in the corresponding menuitems and in the categories themselves.

Caches cleared, all caching off.

Am I blind?

Thanks for helpful hints!

J! 3.9.19
VM 3.8.2 10325
Php 7.3.15

If you click on category banner on HP, then I see redirect, but view is rendering with ajax.

Then problem is in ajax and template, not VM :)

Thank you!

I disabled "Use ajax for category content" in the config - it's working now

Thank you for reporting this bug. So the ajax is not loading the category description, hmmm. I just checked it on the demo and for me it looks working correctly.
