Move category title above the left and center columns

[Marcusen]

Hi, I'd like to move the category title, image and description above the left and center columns, preferably inside the TopColumn area. Here's a sample of what I want to get:

 

 

I've messed around with the category.tpl and header.tpl files, but I can't move code (specially the $category string) between the two without breaking the website.

Thanks!

Add this code in file - global.js

$(document).ready(function(){
	$('div.content_scene_cat').insertAfter('#slider_row');
});

it's a case of theme modification. huge modification.

in this case you will have to alter the way of how theme works.

for example, whole logic related to category pages are stored in categoryController.php file and it uses category.tpl file

to move banner above the columns you will have to move logic from category controller to front controller and add the code of the banner to header.tpl file (with if conditions to check if customer is currently viewing category page etc.) 

 

or just use  workaround as webtet suggested

Thanks! It works great, even if its a workaround. Could it present any future problems? I simply added a class (.category-move) on the elements I wanted to move.

Yep, I suspected it would require quite a bit of modification, luckily Webtet's solutions seems to fit.
