I want to display categories in a list (one category per row), but with a short description underneath each one. The problem is, the only way I have found to do it is to have an image accompanying the category. I do not want images for each category, just a list of categories with descriptions. Anyway of doing this?
Thanks

Hi, Settings > Store Settings > Display Settings. The first category option should be "As a list (category names only)" Then set your categories per row and rows per page to your preferred values.

Thanks, but I already had that selected. I am able to get the categories to display without images, but I can't get the short description of the category to appear below the category name. I would like something like this:
Category 1 Category 1 Description
Category 2 Category 2 Description

Ah, OK, I should have read the message more closely :-)
Yes, it's possible, but it would need a customized piece of code,
basically to exclude the images from the display. It's a small customization, and will be to one of the pcShowCategory*.asp files, not sure which of the top of my head, but take a look.
