Question Displaying the description in the listings

Hi, I'm trying to make some changes to where product descriptions are displayed. Currently when I click on a product category I get this:

http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/c...cone/shot1.jpg

and I click "more" in order to get information like the item description
http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/c...cone/shot2.jpg

But I want the description to be displayed above the "more" link as well. I've been sifting through the code and located the relevant files, but when I copy the code which is responsible for displaying the description into the other file, the code doesn't work. It is simply ignored.

I'll figure it out eventually, but does anyone know how to do this off hand?

Please post your 68 Classifieds type (Designer, Developer), version (4.0.x, 4.1.x) and template in your postings asking for help. This information will help you get better answers for your posts. A great place to do this is in your signature!


It depends whether that variable is available to you in that template file. If you use the debug feature you will see if that description variable is available in the showlistings template. In this case I beleive it is not available to you. However the short description variable is if you choose to use it and make it part of your ad package. Here is an example
