Catgory description

[janditlev]

How do I make the descriptions always show in full, so I do not need to press "more" to expand the description?

 

I tried to set dynamic to "No", but this does not do anything.

Hi

 

in  category.tpl modify this section

{if Tools::strlen($category->description) > 350}
      <div id="category_description_short">{$description_short}</div>
      <div id="category_description_full" class="unvisible">{$category->description}</div>
      <a href="{$link->getCategoryLink($category->id_category, $category.link_rewrite)|escape:'html':'UTF-8'}" class="lnk_more">{l s='More'}</a>
{else}
      <div>{$category->description}</div>
{/if}

<div>{$category->description}</div>
