I Need to Retrieve the Category Description Field and Display it On the Category Page. How?
The category description field is not exposed to the UI by default. Nor is there a setting in the Admin to display it. I need it to be visible, not just to search engines, but to members. What is the field identifier, and what options exist to retrieve this value and display it on the category page? This seems so simple, and I find it difficult to understand why it is yet solved.
The setting is called category.description. You can certainly get it through REST API like this
/restapi/vc/categories/id/[category id]/settings/name/category.description
You could also try getting through the coreNode context object ${coreNode.settings.name.get("category.description", "")} but I haven't tested that one out.
