Hey guys! On Joomla 3 and VM 3 Im battling to get the descriptions to show up on second level sub categories ie

-Level one: has description
--Level two I put code:<?php echo $category->category_description ?> to make this show up and now it shows
---Level three : No description!!

Any and all help would be appreciated thanks!!

Ok this was easier than I thought :)

Create yourtemplate/html/com_virtuemart/sublayouts/categories.php

I did this just under h2 classand didnt realise it was working, because VM was heavy caching!! Remember to clear cache from Joomla itself

<div class="newcat"><?php echo $category->category_description ?></div>

Worked for me :)
