How do I remove the description from the main page?

[Melissa67]

Do you know the categories are listed on the first page, well I want to remove the description from underneath each category but still have it show after you click on the category which will take you to that particular categories info.

Hope I explained that well enough to understand!

First page of cat (category_bit.html) or first page (home.html) ?

home.html

Ok so for no affect gallery -

In includes/functions.php file,

find:

global $site_template, $site_db, $site_sess, $config, $lang;

replace:

Code: [Select]

global $site_template, $site_db, $site_sess, $config, $lang, $url;

find:

"cat_description" => format_text($cat_cache[$category_id]['cat_description'], 1),

replace:

Code: [Select]

"cat_description" => (!preg_match("/index.php/", $url)) ? format_text($cat_cache[$category_id]['cat_description'], 1) : "",

Should work.

SUPER! IT WORKED!! 

THANKS!

[thunderstrike]

Thank for posting.

[Melissa67]

Oh, wait! It doesn't show on the home page but as soon as I login it shows again. Should I be changing a code someplace else?

[Melissa67]

Wait! My error! Silly me! I had another window open at the same time. 

[Melissa67]

Sorry but there's a problem again.

I had typed out a description for one of the categories (artist name) and everything was fine until I logged out. There it was again, the description showing on the main page again. I even clicked on the 'Home' button to see if it would change but it wouldn't.

The funny is if I'm on www.website.com/art-gallery  it does not show the description but if I am on www.website.com/art-gallery/index.php it shows up again.

Any suggestions?

Any suggestions?

1 - Logout
2 - Clear all cookies & temp files.
3 - Go back
4 - Login
5 - See description if back (+ logout).
6 - Report here.

[Melissa67]

Ok. I think it's ok now. It must've resorted back to a cache file or something.

[Melissa67]

It happened again. It seems as though as soon as I login the description shows under the artist category on the home page. All cache has been cleared. 

works at www.website.com/art-gallery but shows on www.website.com/art-gallery/index.php again.

Can no reproduce ... host should adapt with ./ and index.php file. Should be same ROOT_PATH destination from host to client ... 
Set .htaccess for fix ROOT PATH or send ticket to host for help on this.

[Melissa67]

How do I set .htaccess to fix ROOT PATH?

My website hosting company doesn't seem to help with anything too much.

[thunderstrike]

This is offtopic but create .htaccess file (yes, . include first).

Set this in file:

Code: [Select]

DirectoryIndex index.php

Upload file to ROOT_PATH (where index.php, categories.php ect ..) is. Reload site. Should work.
